Same cooling, more capability
In summer a heat pump pulls heat out of your home and releases it outside, the same way a central air conditioner does. In winter a reversing valve runs the cycle backward to bring heat inside.
That means one outdoor unit replaces your AC and takes on much of your heating, often with your gas furnace kept as backup in a dual-fuel system.

Heat pump cooling questions
Does a heat pump cool as well as an air conditioner?
Yes. A heat pump uses the same refrigeration cycle as a central air conditioner to cool your home. A reversing valve lets it run that cycle backward to heat in winter.
Can I replace my AC with a heat pump and keep my furnace?
Yes. That is called a dual-fuel system. The heat pump cools in summer and heats most of the year, and your gas furnace takes over in the coldest weather.
Will a heat pump lower my summer cooling bills?
Modern variable-speed heat pumps are very efficient at cooling. Your savings depend on the system you are replacing and how the ductwork performs, so we look at both.
Does a heat pump need different maintenance?
Yes. Because it runs year-round, a heat pump should be serviced in spring and fall. Both of our maintenance plans include both visits.
