What is a heat pump and do you have one??

A heat pump is one of the major types of residential HVAC system found in Northern Virginia.  Quick facts about heat pumps:

• If you do not have a natural gas furnace, you likely have a heat pump system

• Heat pump outdoor units look exactly like a typical air conditioner, but internal components are different

• Heat pumps can be thought of as an air conditioner that has the ability to run backwards, producing both heat AND cool

• Heat pumps do not burn fossil fuels (directly); they are all-electric systems

• Oil furnace systems are almost always good candidates to be replaced by heat pumps

• Newer heat pumps can provide sufficient heat at much lower outside temperatures than older heat pumps

• The world is going electric and heat pumps are replacing many gas systems on a large scale

• Heat pumps used to be found only in the south.  Improved technology has brought them further and further north- to us!
