Heat Pumps
 Heat pumps are a great solution for your Rogue Valley home comfort system. That’s because they work to provide both heating and cooling. Whether it’s the hottest day of the summer, or the coldest day of winter, heat pumps work day in and day out to provide your family with premium comfort.
An electric heat pump is the most comfortable and efficient way to heat and cool your home. In warm weather it keeps you pleasantly cool and in cold weather it circulates warm air evenly throughout every room.
Choosing the Right Heat Pump For Your Oregon Home
There are several factors to consider before buying a heat pump.
Here are the main ones.
Initial Costs Versus Operating Costs
The biggest expense over the life of a heat pump is not the cost of buying and
installing it. It's the accumulated monthly cost of running it year after year.
Usually, as the efficiency rating of a unit goes up, so does the initial cost.
However, as the efficiency rating goes up, the monthly cost to operate the unit
goes down. You'll want to consider the importance of a high-efficiency system
and the trade-off between your initial cost and the monthly operating costs. If
you’re planning on living in the same house five years or more, consider
installing a more efficient system.
Size
To work most efficiently, a heat pump's heating and cooling capacity has to
match your home's heating and cooling demands. An undersized system won't
adequately cool your home, while an oversized one won't dehumidify properly and
can make the house feel drafty in the winter.
Duct System
This is very important because the heat pump will pump air all through your
house using this system. The ductwork must be insulated and sealed properly so
the air gets where it's going at the right temperature. Proper construction of
the ductwork is essential to ensure efficient operation of the heat pump over
the life of the system. Care taken in the initial construction and sealing of
the ductwork will yield maximum efficiency from the heat pump for years to come.
While it is important to choose a brand with a history of quality, performance, reliability, and customer satisfaction - the brand itself is not as important as the installation of the equipment. If you are in love with a specific brand - we can get it.
