As some of the most versatile types of HVAC systems on the market, heat pumps have long been popular for indoor comfort. Thanks to recent improvements in energy efficiency, they’re a money-saving choice too. Today’s modern heat pumps also do a better job at keeping you comfortable in every season. Explore the innovative technologies that make a heat pump installation in Twin City, Georgia a smart investment.
Two Stage Compressors
The muscle behind any heat pump system is the compressor, which squeezes the refrigerant until it turns into a hot, high-pressure gas. Systems with 2-stage compressors adjust operation according to your comfort requirements. These advanced compressors significantly reduce the amount of electricity the heat pump uses. You’ll pay less on energy bills while experiencing a higher level of comfort.
Variable Speed Motors
Heat pumps use motors to power the system’s fans and blowers. Models with variable-speed motors automatically adjust airflow to meet your needs. Whatever the weather, the control systems on these motors keep the air moving. Instead of intermittent blasts of warm or cool air, you enjoy a consistently comfortable environment. Because they operate at low speed most of the time, they can save you a bundle on heating and cooling.
Energy Efficiency Ratings
The efficiency of a heat pump system is rated by comparing its heating or cooling output to its energy consumption. The higher the numeric rating, the more money you’ll save on energy bills. The SEER, or Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio, measures the heat pump’s cooling efficiency. The Heating Seasonal Performance Factor (HSPF) represents its heating efficiency. These two ratings allow you to make apples-to-apples comparisons when you’re on the hunt for a money-saving system.
