Are you still using a traditional air conditioning system or furnace in your home? If so, it may be time for an upgrade (all the cool kids are doing it). As of 2020 more than 17 million housing units in the U.S. had heat pumps installed due to their ability to save on energy and costs while optimizing comfort the home.
At Sensible, we’re all about alternative energy and with that comes energy and cost efficiency. That’s why when it comes to regulating the temperature in your home, we recommend the Evolution 24 Heat Pump by Bryant. It uses variable-speed technology and is one of the most advanced, efficient and quiet systems available on the market. Plus, over-the-air software updates help ensure your heat pump has the latest technological advancements.
Not sure if you need a modulating heat pump? Here are a few ways installing an air source heat pump can benefit you:
- Better temperature and humidity regulation
Unlike traditional HVAC systems that have on/off cycles, heat pumps can more precisely control airflow by adjusting their output in small increments to maintain a consistent temperature in the home. And despite the name, heat pumps are also beneficial in the summertime, as they are designed to optimize comfort year around, regardless of outdoor temperatures.
- Reduced energy use means greater savings on utility bills
Because traditional HVAC systems tend to operate at full capacity whenever they’re in use, they end up consuming more energy than necessary, which often leads to noticeable temperature fluctuations in the home. A heat pump, however, makes small adjustments to maintain a comfortable temperature and only consumes enough energy to do so. This incremental operation significantly reduces energy use and saves homeowners money on utility charges.
- Lower maintenance and longer lifespan
As mentioned above, heat pumps operate more efficiently than traditional HVAC systems, as they are not forced to stop and start repeatedly. Instead, they run at a lower, more consistent speed, which means greater longevity for the system as there is less strain on its individual components. While regular maintenance checkups are still necessary, there is less risk of potential issues like refrigerant leaks, broken compressors, and clogged filters, making heat pumps a solid longer-term investment for homeowners.
Whether you’re in need of a new system right now or in the near future, it’s never too early to upgrade your HVAC system when doing so can save energy and money while optimizing comfort.
