How have you been weathering the Polar Vortex? With some
record low temperatures, and no end in sight, you may be looking to upgrade the
heat pump in your home. At Hartmann Well Drilling,
we understand the position you’re in. When the weather is this cold, having the
heat turned up is a necessity. For residents of the Twin
Cities, heat pumps are an efficient way to provide warmth to your house. It
may be hard to choose which heat pump is right for you, so in this blog we’re
going to provide you with some tips.
Energy Efficiency
When we’re talking about heating a fairly sizable space, it
is necessary to have a heating unit that provides excellent energy efficiency.
If you don’t have one that works at maximum efficiency, you are throwing money
away every time you use the heater. When you upgrade to a more modern heat
pump, you are most likely going to improve your energy efficiency and save a
few bucks.
Department of Energy
Ratings
The Department
of Energy has ratings in place for new model heat pumps. If you pay
attention to these numbers while you’re choosing a new heat pump, it can
provide you with useful information. When you take these ratings into
consideration, you’ll be able to get a more apples-to-apples comparison on the
units. The units that have the highest ratings will be the most efficient units
available.
Choose an Appropriate
Heat Pump
Choosing an appropriate heat pump for your Twin Cities home
is another thing you need to be careful of.
If you buy a system that is too large, it will cycle on and off too
much. If you buy a system that is too small, it will have to work too hard to
keep your home warm. Find the system that is the perfect size for your home and
begin to reap the benefits!
