Have you been looking for a new source of heating? Heat Pumps can be a great energy efficient way to heat your home, In fact are the most energy efficient from of heating when used correctly.
What is a Heat Pump?
Heat pumps, or air-conditioners, can cleverly collect latent heat from air outside the house, even on a cold day, for use inside. Although they are expensive to buy, they are relatively economical to run. They run on electricity but create far more heat per kWh of electricity than other forms of electric heating. Most air-conditioners available for sale in New Zealand are "reverse cycle" which means they are capable of heating in Winter and also cooling in Summer.
How does a Heat Pump work?
Heat pumps do not generate heat but extract it from one body of air and transfer it to another. They use the same principle as your fridge, compressing gas and then allowing it to expand, extracting heat as it does so.
Even if the air outside is freezing, heat pumps can extract heat energy and transfer it inside to keep you warm. In summer the system works in reverse, extracting heat from indoors and transferring it outside leaving you comfortable and cool.
They provide convenient, efficient, thermostatically-controlled heating that can be set to turn on and off automatically at different times of the day.
Heat pumps can also work as an air conditioner for summer cooling – it just uses the above principles in reverse.
