Are you looking for high-quality heat pumps in Hamilton? Aire One Heating & Cooling can assist you with heat pumps that are an essential part of your home’s heating and cooling systems.
​
A heat pump is part of a heating and cooling system and is installed outside your home. Like an air conditioner, it can cool your home, but it’s also capable of providing heat. In cooler months, a heat pump pulls heat from the cold outdoor air and transfers it indoors, and in warmer months, it pulls heat out of indoor air to cool your home. They are powered by electricity and transfer heat using refrigerant to provide comfort all year round.
​
If you are exploring options to heat and cool your home or reduce your energy bills, you might want to consider a heat pump system. Heat pumps are a proven and reliable technology in Canada, capable of providing year-round comfort control for your home by supplying heat in the winter, cooling in the summer.
​
Heat pumps in Hamilton can be an excellent choice in a variety of applications, and for both new homes and retrofits of existing heating and cooling systems. They are also an option when replacing existing air conditioning systems, as the incremental cost to move from a cooling-only system to a heat pump is often quite low.
WHAT IS A HEAT PUMP, AND HOW DOES IT WORK?
HEAT PUMP BASIC CONCEPTS
A heat pump is an electrically driven device that extracts heat from a low temperature place (a source) and delivers it to a higher temperature place (a sink).
To understand this process, think about a bicycle ride over a hill: No effort is required to go from the top of the hill to the bottom, as the bike and rider will move naturally from a high place to a lower one. However, going up the hill requires a lot more work, as the bike is moving against the natural direction of motion.
In a similar manner, heat naturally flows from places with higher temperatures to locations with lower temperatures (e.g., in the winter, heat from inside the building is lost to the outside). A heat pump uses additional electrical energy to counter the natural flow of heat, and pump the energy available in a colder place to a warmer one.
So how does a heat pump heat or cool your home? As energy is extracted from a source, the temperature of the source is reduced. If the home is used as the source, thermal energy will be removed, cooling this space. This is how a heat pump operates in cooling mode and is the same principle used by air conditioners and refrigerators. Similarly, as energy is added to a sink, its temperature increases. If the home is used as a sink, thermal energy will be added, heating the space. A heat pump is fully reversible, meaning that it can both heat and cool your home, providing year-round comfort.
IMPORTANCE OF CHOOSING THE RIGHT HEAT PUMP
Choosing the right heat pump for your Hamilton home is crucial to ensure optimal comfort, energy efficiency, and long-term savings. Here are a few key reasons why selecting the right heat pump is essential:
ENHANCED ENERGY EFFICIENCY
A high-quality heat pump with advanced energy-efficient features can significantly reduce energy consumption and lower utility bills. Look for heat pumps with high SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) and HSPF (Heating Seasonal Performance Factor) ratings, as they indicate better energy efficiency. By selecting an energy-efficient heat pump, you save money and contribute to a greener and more sustainable environment.
OPTIMAL HEATING AND COOLING PERFORMANCE
The right heat pump should provide reliable and consistent yearly heating and cooling performance. It should be capable of efficiently maintaining your desired indoor temperature, regardless of the outside weather conditions. When choosing a heat pump, consider its heating capacity, cooling capacity, and the range of temperatures it can effectively operate in. An appropriately sized and well-matched heat pump will ensure maximum comfort and performance in your Hamilton home.
DURABILITY AND LONGEVITY
Investing in a high-quality heat pump from reputable brands ensures durability and longevity. Heat pumps from trusted manufacturers are built with superior craftsmanship and undergo rigorous testing to meet industry standards.
