2:13 pm	Should You Choose a Electric to Heat Your Home Are you considering a electric to heat your home? The first thing you need to know is that there is a big difference between using a heat pump in say Butte, Montana as opposed to an area having a warmer climate for example Plano, TX. Maybe you've had a current "Home Energy Audit" and also the auditor has recommended purchasing a H/P system. heat pump reviews Exactly what is a heat pump? First consider an aura conditioner. What does your air conditioner do? It moves heat out of your house. The lack of heat is cold. When your air conditioner is running, put you above the outside unit, the condenser, and you'll feel heated air. Your ac is moving heat away from home making your home cooler. So, exactly what is a electric? Think about an air conditioning system running backwards. A H/P includes a reversing valve which allows the system to consider heated air externally and set it in your home. How is this possible? Simply put, there is heat in cold air. In fact, there is heat in cold air all the way down to "absolute zero" which is approximately "minus 460 degrees". Since there is warm air in cold air a H/P system will be effective until it reaches its balance point which usually occurs between 32 and 40 degrees F. The balance point is the outdoor temperature point at which the H/P's output equals the requirements of the space being heated. Once the temperature remains below the "balance point" a electric will utilize a supplemental heat source, that is usually an electric heating element.. If you reside in Butte, Montana where the temperature is close to freezing or below during the cold months, a heat pump won't be effective. If you reside in Plano, TX or a similar type region were temperatures can be at 50 degrees through much of the winter, they will work very efficiently. heat pump reviews Why is it cheaper to operate a heat pump instead of an electrical air handler? They don't create heat, they move heat. It is cheaper to maneuver heat than create heat. Final point here is if you work with electricity to heat your house, you can save around 30-40% using a electric. An additional benefit is that your home will have a healthier environment than a single heated with electric heat or perhaps a gas furnace. That's because an electrical air handler or traditional gas furnace gets dry the air you breathe and may dry the skin. (Comment on this)

The very first thing you need to know is that there's a huge difference between utilizing a heat pump in say Butte, Montana as opposed to a place with a warmer climate for example Plano, TX. Maybe you have had a recent "Home Energy Audit" and the auditor has recommended investing in a H/P system. heat pump reviews What is a heat pump? First consider an air conditioner.

Whenever your air conditioner is running, put you over the outside unit, the condenser, and you will feel heated air. Your air conditioner is moving heat away from home making your home cooler. So, what is a heat pump? Think about an air conditioning system running in reverse. A H/P includes a reversing valve that allows the machine to consider heated air externally and set it in your home. How's this possible? To put it simply, there's heat in cold air. Actually, there's heat in cold air all the way down to "absolute zero" that is approximately "minus 460 degrees". Because there is heated air in cold air a H/P system is going to be effective until it reaches its balance point which often occurs between 32 and 40 degrees F. The total amount point is the outdoor temperature point at which the H/P's output equals the needs of the space being heated. When the temperature remains below the "balance point" a heat pump will use a supplemental heat source, that is usually an electrical heating unit.. So if you live in Butte, Montana where the temperature is near to freezing or below in the winter, a electric won't be effective. If you live in Plano, TX or a similar type region were temperatures could be at 50 degrees through much of the winter, they are effective very efficiently. heat pump reviews Why is it cheaper to operate a heat pump instead of an electric air handler?
