My weather conditions are quite moderate, so I took the plunge and bought a heat pump.
I appreciate that I get a two for one system with this; Both heating plus cooling in a single system. Also the heat pump is ductless. That means I don’t have to have the entire dwelling heated to a single temp. I appreciate the ability to have zone control. I use the customized zone feature more than anything else. I appreciate having the AC blowing in the family room but having the living room heated. I also take advantage of unused rooms. The laundry room, office, plus most of the time my living room gets nothing during the afternoon. I save quite a bit of money on this. The actual function of the heat pump saves you too. How it works is by pushing plus pulling existing heat energy. It works like a normal air conditioning machine in the summer time plus in the wintertime the heated air is pulled into the home. This creates cleaner, fresher indoor air quality. No combustion process or yellow dwelling glasses. It is so much cheaper to run too. The heat pump is said to live anywhere from 15-20 years as long as you treat it right. It might seem a bit horrifying to purchase a heat pump due to the initial price tag. With the energy savings every month, it pays back its asking price. There is even a tax credit for making this update too. What more could you possibly want for this genius system? Even those in colder weather conditions can have a dual fuel or hybrid heater to save.
