A Greener Solution for Heating and Cooling

A heat pump is a highly efficient solution that can help keep your home comfortable in the summer and for much of the winter, depending on your climate. Compared to many other heating solutions, heat pumps offer:

Energy Reduction

Heat pumps can reduce energy consumption compared to electric resistance heating such as furnaces and baseboard heaters.

Environmental Benefits

Fossil fuels made up more than 70% of greenhouse gas emissions related to residential space heating in 2019. By switching to a heat pump, you can help reduce emissions and improve air quality.

Comfort

As well as keeping you warm or cool, a heat pump can help dehumidify a room when on cooling mode to keep you comfortable even on the hottest summer days.

Access to Rebates

Many heat pumps qualify for government and utility rebates, putting money back in your pocket.

How Do Air Source Heat Pumps Work?

Unlike most heating systems, air source heat pumps move heat from one area to another. In the summer, the heat pump cools interior spaces by pulling heat from inside and sending it outside. In cold weather, the heat pump extracts heat from outdoor air and transfers it inside.

Because there’s less heat available to extract from the cold air outside during the winter months, air source heat pumps are typically most effective at heating your home during the milder shoulder seasons. Most units become less effective when outdoor temperatures drop below -10˚C, so you need a backup heat source to get through the coldest part of the year. Effective backup heat sources include energy-efficient gas furnaces and electric baseboard heating.

How Much Does an Air Source Heat Pump Cost?

The cost of a new heat pump can vary significantly, depending on options and application.

Frequently Asked Heat Pump Questions

  • In most cases, yes. A central heat pump can be integrated into your existing system and even fully replace your air conditioner. A ductless heat pump won’t connect directly to your existing system, but it can be used to provide complementary heating and cooling in a specific space.
  • It depends on the climate where you live, but in general, no. While there’s no temperature limit to a heat pump’s cooling ability, they become less effective and efficient at heating the colder it gets outside. On very cold days, you might want to switch to your furnace, which will likely be more efficient at low temperatures than your heat pump.
  • Heat pumps run on electricity rather than by burning fossil fuels, which helps reduce their carbon footprint. They’re also more energy efficient than many resistance-based electric heating sources, such as furnaces and baseboard heaters.
