How Do Heat Pumps Work?
There are a number of heat pump designs. Geothermal heat pumps have long been used to capitalize on the heat stored within the ground. Air source heat pumps are the most common design in Redlands, CA, and the surrounding areas. Whether you are replacing an existing heat pump, installing a brand new system or upgrading a central air conditioner with a heat pump, the process is very similar. All heat pumps run completely on electricity which means the outdoor unit and indoor units do not produce any direct emissions. This is the primary reason heat pumps are rising in popularity.
Heat pumps also feature a dual mode of cooling and warming. In cooling mode, refrigerant passes through an expansion device. This extremely cool refrigerant enters the indoor air handler in your home. Inside your home air is cold as heat is transferred from indoor air to the refrigerant. Refrigerant is transferred out of your home leaving indoor temperatures comfortable and cold.
In heating mode, the process is reversed. Outdoor air is compressed and heated pressurized refrigerant enters your home. Heat in the refrigerant is transferred to indoor air and circulated throughout your home.
Heat pumps can work just like a central air conditioner system and a gas furnace. Warm air and cool air is maintained through a highly efficient all electric system. When replacing an air conditioner or furnace there is no need to have a new duct system installed. Sanborn’s heat pump installation uses your existing ductwork. For homes that do not feature air ducts or for converted spaces like home additions, garages and sun rooms, ductless heat pumps may be installed.
