What is a heat pump and how does it work?
A heat pump is a device that essentially works with renewable energy from the ground or the air.
A Heat Pump Heats Your Home in Winter
Above all, it is important to know that the outdoor air and the ground always contains a certain amount of heat even at a temperature of around 0°C. Thus, the heat pump captures the heat outside and carries it inside to heat your home in winter. This type of device is generally functional for an outdoor temperature of up to -8°C.
A Heat Pump Also Cools Your Home in Summer
The heat pump also removes heat inside to cool the ambient air in your home in summer. This device thus makes it possible to limit the use of air conditioners, which can generate significant energy consumption.
What are the advantages of a heat pump?
One of the biggest benefits of a heat pump is saving energy. For example, a device with a performance coefficient or COP of 3 provides 3 kWh of energy for an electrical consumption of 1 kWh. In other words, the cost of using this type of equipment is relatively low. In addition, it provides both heating and air conditioning functions.
What are the limits of a heat pump?
Buying and installing a heat pump is generally a huge investment. However, it remains more economical in the long term given its low electricity consumption and its lifespan of 10 to 15 years. In addition, many organizations offer attractive grants of up to $15,000, depending on the case. Finally, we note that it is sometimes necessary to add additional heating during the coldest periods in areas such as Quebec.
And leave the heat and humidity outside during the summer
What are the criteria to take into account when choosing a heat pump?
Here are the selection criteria to consider to ensure the efficiency of your heat pump:
- The size of the device: it must be adapted to the size of the space to be heated or cooled;
- The performance coefficient: to save as much energy as possible;
- The model: Air-Air, Air-Water or Geothermal;
- The type of heat pump: multi-zone, central or wall-mounted.
In addition, your home must have good thermal insulation to ensure the effectiveness of the heat pump. Also, the device must be well maintained and cleaned regularly for optimal functioning.
