Heil Heat Pumps

Heat pump overview

A heat pump provides year-round climate control for homes by transferring heat from one place to another. This electrical device uses a refrigerant that circulates through the compressor, condenser and evaporator, releasing or absorbing heat in the process. Heat pumps differ from air conditioners in that they can both heat and cool your home. Depending on the season, a heat pump can both absorb and release heat, using the outside air to control indoor temperatures.

Here’s a list of things you should consider:

• Clean or replace the air filter monthly, or as recommended by the manufacturer.
• Keep the outdoor unit clear from leaves or debris.
• Inspect the ducts for leakage and seal them properly, if required.
• Do not set the thermostat above or below the manufacturer’s recommended temperature.
• Consult a local HVAC professional at least once every year.
