Help Maximize Your Savings with Heat Pump Rebates!

Ever hear the term heat pump and wondered what it means exactly?
Heat Pump technology has been around for a long time and it is commonly used in many
parts of the world as a way for families to both heat and cool their homes.
It can be an efficient and cost-effective way to stay comfortable, while possibly helping
to reduce your carbon footprint.
The best way to describe a heat pump is like
an air conditioning unit that can operate in reverse.
During the summer, it helps to keep you cool by removing heat from inside your home and
moving it outside.
It keeps your home comfortable in the colder months by removing heat from the outside air
and circulating it back indoors.
These units run on electricity, and work seamlessly
with your furnace or back-up heat source so
that your back-up heat source automatically takes over when the temperature becomes too
cold outside for the heat pump to work effectively.
And for added convenience, heat pumps can also work with your existing ductwork and
furnace fan to move air throughout your home.
There are several different types of heat
pumps that are available, depending on your needs, your current heating and cooling set-up,
and your budget.
The most common is air source, and as the name suggests, it absorbs heat from the air
and moves it either in-to or out-of your home, depending on the season.
Geothermal, or ground source heat pumps, operate like the air source units, however they use
the earth or ground water to source and to expel heat.
The more consistent temperatures found underground can help to make this type run more efficiently,
especially during the hotter and colder days of the year.
Stand-alone units that do not require traditional ductwork are also available.
Using a heat pump could create greater overall
comfort in your home, providing consistent temperatures throughout the year.
Heat pumps move heat rather than creating it, so they can help to reduce your energy
consumption and your costs, especially during milder months.
Since they run on electricity, heat pumps may produce lower CO2 emissions than a furnace
that burns fossil fuels, depending on the cleanliness of your electricity supply.
And since your furnace won’t need to be running as much, you could reduce your emissions
even further and help to protect yourself from fluctuating fuel costs.
