Heating and air conditioning systems are essential to guarantee your comfort in regions with a harsh climate such as Quebec. Among them, the heat pump is particularly distinguished by its economic and ecological character. How does it work and what are its main benefits?
What is a heat pump?
A heat pump is a multi-functional electrical device that acts as both a heater and an air conditioner. To do this, it takes advantage of the temperature difference between the outside air or the ground and the indoor air. More concretely:
- The heat pump intercepts the energy (heat) contained in the outside air or the ground and brings it back inside to increase the ambient temperature in the house in winter.
- It evacuates heat to the outside in order to cool the indoor atmosphere in summer.
As a result, we conclude that:
- This device does not produce heat, but only ensures the transport of heat from one medium to another.
- It mainly uses renewable energy contained in the air and in the ground.
What are the main advantages of a heat pump?
The heat pump has two major advantages.
1- The heat pump is economical
Since it mainly uses renewable energy, the heat pump consumes little electricity. In fact, it is capable of providing an energy of 3 to 5 kWh for an electrical consumption of 1 kWh, depending on its coefficient of performance (COP). This is the reason why the use of this type of device proves to be economical in the long term despite its relatively high cost. In addition, several organizations offer grants for the installation of certain heat pump models.
2- The heat pump is ecological
The heat pump does not require the use of fuels such as oil or wood. Thus, it does not cause the release of greenhouse gases that are harmful to the environment and human health. This is why it is classified among ecological devices. In addition, it is safer since it does not expose you to the risk of fire or other similar accidents.

What steps should be taken to ensure the efficiency of a heat pump?
To get the most out of the benefits of a heat pump, you need to take the following steps:
- Make sure that the thermal insulation in your home is optimal.
- Opt for a device whose size corresponds to the dimensions of the space to be heated and cooled.
- Clean the device regularly (as recommended by the manufacturer) and ensure that the coils and filters are always clean.
- Have the heat pump checked by a professional at least once a year, especially before winter. Note that the lifespan of this type of device is generally 10 to 15 years.
- Entrust the installation of the device to a qualified professional.
