Pro's To Having a York Heat Pump System In Your Home or Office

Heat pump's in Caldwell can help you save on your utility bills vs. using just an electric or gas furnace.  Most of the new higher end equipment is two stage which means they can get more heat out of the ambient outdoor air than the old ones.  What does that mean for you?  It means that newer heat pumps in Nampa are rated for lower temperatures, lower than the average temperature in the middle of the winter which in layman's term means your heat pump is still making heat for your home rather than relying on inefficient electric heat strips or gas heat to keep you warm.  It is still of course a good idea to have a backup plan such as a natural gas furnace or an electric furnace to compliment your heat pump.  That way when it does get too cold outside for the heat pump to work efficiently the gas or electric furnace can kick in and keep you warm and comfortable all winter.  In the summer the heat pump will work in air conditioning mode and keep your house cool just like a standard Air Conditioning unit.  The heat that a heat pump produces is not as intense as a gas furnace so it will run longer, more efficiently and evenly heat your home and in the end keeping you more comfortable with a faster payback on the equipment.
