In Florida\u2019s climate, cooling is a significant expense (less so with heating). A heat pump is designed to thrive under these conditions and can help cut your costs while saving on energy. A heat pump can also provide your home with year-round comfort, functioning as both a heater and an air conditioner.<\/p>\n<p>The professionals at Home Service Heroes have put together some facts about heat pumps for those who are considering installing one in their homes.<\/p>\n<h2>How Does A Heat Pump Work?<\/h2>\n<p>The term \u201cheat pump\u201d is actually a bit misleading, as heat pumps can not only heat but cool your home as well. A heat pump transfers (pumps) heat from one place to another. During the winter, the heat pump transfers warmth from the outside to heat a home. In warmer months, a heat pump reverses the process; transferring the warm air from inside your home to the outside. Because it does not actually generate heat, it can produce the same results as your HVAC \u2013 while using much less energy.<\/p>\n<h2>What Types of Heat Pumps Are There?<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Air Source:<\/strong> The most common heat pump to be installed, the air source heat pump, is ideal for homes located in warmer climates and can provide up to three times the energy of traditional air conditioners.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ground Source:<\/strong> The most efficient heat pump, the ground source, pumps heat back and forth from the ground. Typically more expensive to install, the ground-source heat pump benefits from low costs due to relatively consistent ground and water temperatures in Florida.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Absorption Heat:<\/strong> One of the newest heat pumps for residential use. Using hot water, natural gas, or propane, the absorption heat pump keeps the temperature to your desired settings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Benefits of Heat Pump Installation<\/h2>\n<p>There are many benefits to installing a heat pump in your home. For those looking to cut down on energy bills and want more energy-efficient heating and cooling, heat pumps offer many benefits you will enjoy.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Energy Efficient: While they tend to cost more upfront than a traditional AC unit, the energy-efficient design will immediately start saving you money, especially when it\u2019s over an extended period of time.<\/li>\n<li>Eco-Friendly: One of the most efficient and eco-friendly heating and cooling options available, heat pumps do not pollute the environment. Other systems like furnaces create pollution during combustion, but heat pumps are cleaner, more efficient, and will add value to your home.<\/li>\n<li>Extra Benefits: A heat pump not only operates as a heater in cooler months but can do the reverse in warmer months, acting as an AC by transferring warm air to the outside.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Having a heat pump installed in your home is a big decision.
