WHAT ARE HEAT PUMPS?
A heat pump moves heat from the outdoors to indoor and vice versa, as per your requirements. The process helps in keeping your Waterloo and Kitchener homes warm throughout the cold. A well-maintained heat pump can last up to 15-20 years.
However, the climate and other external factors such as leaves, ice, snow or any type of debris can also impact its lifespan and performance.
Here are some things to consider before purchasing a Heat Pump:
-
Always call a professional to install your heat pump.
-
Look out for incentives and rebates on heat pumps.
-
It is suggested to evaluate its technology.
-
Consult with a professional regarding its speed motors and compressor.
HOW CAN WE HELP YOU ?
TYPES OF HEAT PUMPS
Ducted Heat Pumps take heat from the outdoor air and then distribute it throughout your home with its ducts.
Ductless Heat Pumps are an efficient way of heating. You can experience home comfort even if your household is missing a central HVAC system. Also known as mini-splits, these systems blow the air – heated or cooled throughout your home.
Apart from that, you can get the flexibility of adjusting the temperature room-wise. They are better suited for smaller spaces.

How often should I service my boiler?A minimum of once a year is recommended. Heating systems come on an average of 3-8 times per hour during the heating season, these numbers can change dramatically in different style of homes and with different thermostats, but this is a rule of thumb in our industry. There is a lot of wear and tear on the appliance and setting can go out of calibration. Also, it is a requirement by most manufacturers and home insurance companies.
-
Can I add new zones to my existing boiler heating system?It depends if the btu output of the radiators has reached the maximum btu output the boiler can support. Having a professional to come out and calculate is your best bet.
-
How will I know if the boiler I select will work properly for my home?Each room will have a radiator and every radiator has a specific btu output . We calculate the total of the radiator btu outputs, match that with a heat loss/heat gain calculation for the home and that is how we size a boiler system for your home.
HOW DO HEAT PUMPS WORK?
Put simply, they have both outdoor and indoor components, and they extract and move heat from one location to another. During winter, the heat pump pulls heat from the air and transfers it to your home. During the summer, it pulls heat from the inside and transfers it out. As cold as it can get during our Canadian winters, there is still heat energy outside.
In moderate climates, heat pumps are a great choice because they are typically cheaper than having a furnace and air conditioner. However, many professionals will tell you that consistent temperatures of -15 C will necessitate more heat than a heat pump can provide. Thankfully, heat pumps work very well in partnership with furnaces!
BENEFITS OF HEAT PUMPS
Heat pumps act as an agent of heating and cooling systems in your homes. Heat pumps are more efficient in terms of energy consumption when compared to air conditioners. They also have a higher COP rating than gas, propane, and electric furnaces.
Installing a heat pump comes with a lot of benefits, such as:
-
Increased efficiency at lower cost
-
Dual functionality
-
No combustion process involved
-
Durable in nature
-
