How Do Heat Pumps Work?

October 5, 2022 | Blog

When you’re looking to switch to an alternative heating system, it can feel like a hassle to research all of the different options available. If you’re looking to upgrade your home with energy-saving forms of temperature control, heat pump installation is a great way to control the amount of footprint that you leave on the environment while also staying cost-effective! Professional heater installation requires an upfront investment, but the amount of electricity that regular furnaces use compared to heat pumps makes up for it in the long run.

One major benefit of alternative heating options is the availability to support homes with different energy needs and cost availability. We understand that all homeowners don’t have the same needs and wants when it comes to heating their home. That’s why heat pumps could offer a great alternative to you and your home, depending on what you’re looking for!

The professionals at Island Airco are here to help you! When you’re ready for the best heat pump installation services in Eureka Springs, you can count on us to provide the best technical and customer service possible.

Heating Options

The way that heat pumps work to heat your house is by taking the outside air and pushing it through a series of tubes to garner the correct amount of pressure. This pressure allows the air to heat up to your desired temperature! During your heat pump installation, you may notice that the professionals will put in an outside unit. This outside unit will serve to pressurize the air which will help in the process of making your house warmer.

This makes it a great option for those with bigger houses! The amount of energy needed to heat your home in the winter time can be possible without using so much electricity. As the heat pump moves the air from outside through the tubes and pressurizes it, it will allow circulation throughout the entire house.

Cooling Options

When your heat pump is trying to cool your house down, the air goes through a similar process with only slight differences in the parts and chemicals used. While a heat pump doesn’t actually generate any of the air that it blows around, it does run the air through refrigerant to cool it down. During professional heater installation, workers may ask about certain specifications of the house so that they can get the right blend for the size and shape of your house.

Other conventional AC units will use fans and refrigerants to generate cold air, heat pumps move the air from one place to another, using energy-conserving processes to properly circulate cool air throughout the home.
