Understanding Heat Pump Cycles for Maximum Efficiency

Heat pumps transfer heat to regulate temperatures. The three main types are air-to-air, water source, and geothermal. They are energy-efficient and replace furnaces and air conditioners. They collect heat outside and transfer it inside the house. The heat pumps are more efficient than traditional heating methods like boilers because they recycle heat from water, air, and the ground. SEER and HSPF Ratings Remember that models with high SEER and HSPF ratings are more efficient when selecting a heat pump. SEER measures cooling efficiency, and HSPF measures heating efficiency. Look for models
