How Does a Heat Pump Work?
Remember when we said that a heat pump is great for our environment? Well, this is due to the fact that things don’t really get that cold around here. For some homeowners in Florida, the idea of spending money on a furnace and maintaining it only to use it a handful of times a year just does not make sense. Still, though, a heater is necessary. So, what is one to do?
Well, a heat pump differs from other heaters in that it does not generate new heat. Instead, the heat pump transfers existing heat into the home from the air outside. Refrigerant is circulated in the outdoor coil of the system, absorbing heat from the air, and is then compressed before being condensed in the indoor coil. That heat allows for the incredibly efficient heating of the house.
If that operation sounds familiar, it is probably due to the fact that it is pretty much how an air conditioner functions, just in reverse. And the heat pump takes advantage of this, allowing you to reverse its operation in order to function as an air conditioner throughout the summer season! That’s year–round comfort, with just one system needed.
We Service and Install Heat Pumps
Because the heat pump is so renowned for its energy efficiency, it really does not make sense to put that efficiency at risk with a lousy installation. Scheduling your Tampa, FL heat pump installation or replacement with us means that you fortunately won’t have to worry about that. We’ll size your system appropriately for your home, and we will ensure that its ductwork is designed and installed properly as well. You deserve the best that your heat pump has to offer.
Like any other HVAC system, your heat pump is going to require routine maintenance in order to continue functioning effectively and reliably. In fact, because the system is used year–round, heat pump maintenance is doubly important!

You don’t want to put your system at risk by ignoring heat pump repair needs.
