What is a Heat Pump?

A heat pump is a versatile component of a home heating and cooling system, installed outside your home. Similar to a central air conditioner, it can cool your home, but it’s also capable of providing heat. In cooler months, a heat pump pulls heat from the cold outdoor air and transfers it indoors, and in warmer months, it pulls heat out of indoor air to cool your home. Powered by electricity and using refrigerant, heat pumps provide comfort all year round. Homeowners may not need separate systems to heat and cool their homes. In colder climates, an electric heat strip can be added to the indoor fan coil for additional heating capabilities. Heat pumps do not burn fossil fuels like furnaces, making them more environmentally friendly.

Types of Heat Pumps

Air-Source Heat Pumps

Air-source heat pumps transfer heat between indoor air and outdoor air. They are more popular for residential heating and cooling due to their efficiency and effectiveness in various climates.

Ground-Source Heat Pumps

Ground-source heat pumps, sometimes called geothermal heat pumps, transfer heat between the air inside your home and the ground outside. Although more expensive to install, they are typically more efficient and have lower operating costs due to the consistent ground temperature throughout the year.

How Does a Heat Pump Work?

Heat pumps transfer heat from one place to another using different air or heat sources. Air-source heat pumps move heat between the air inside a home and the air outside a home, while ground-source heat pumps (geothermal heat pumps) transfer heat between the air inside a home and the ground outside.

Heat Pump Basics

Despite the name, heat pumps do not generate heat – they move heat from one place to another. A furnace creates heat that is distributed throughout a home, but a heat pump absorbs heat energy from the outside air (even in cold temperatures) and transfers it to the indoor air. When in cooling mode, a heat pump and an air conditioner are functionally identical, absorbing heat from the indoor air and releasing it through the outdoor unit.
