Is A Heat Pump Right For Your Florida Home?

By: Robbi Hess | Category: Heat pump efficiency |

If you have been told it’s time to upgrade your heating and air conditioning unit you may be wondering, “Is a heat pump right for your Florida home?” The short answer is, it just might be.

When you use a heat pump, along with an electric cooling and heating system the heat pump works Should You Get a Heat Pump?against the “natural flow” of air. The heat pump forces the cool to turn into warm air as it makes its way through the heat pump’s heating and cooling components.

The way the heat pump works is:

  1. A coil of refrigerant is heated until it turns into a vapor
  2. The vapor is pressurized in the compressor
  3. The vapor goes through the condenser and cold air is blown over the coil
  4. The vapor is cooled into a liquid state and the air that has been warmed through this process is pushed through the ductwork of your house
  5. This process repeats continually to warm the house

 A heat pump does require a lot of electricity to run and it isn’t ideal for all areas of the country. In the colder climates the heat pump will require more energy to operate because it will take longer to heat the ambient air. Using a heat pump is well-suited to homes in warmer parts of the country; Florida is an ideal setting because of our temperate climate.

Is A Heat Pump Right For Your Florida Home?

Should you upgrade to a heat pump? 

  • Are you heating your house with forced air electronic baseboard heat? Baseboard heating systems that use a heat pump may reduce your heating costs by more than 40%! 
  • Florida’s warm temperatures help a heat pump operate at maximum efficiency because they rely on ambient air. Because Florida’s temperatures are above 25 degrees, the heat pump produces more heat units than it uses energy units. Even in the winter a heat pump in Florida home, will work efficiently. 
  • Be prepared to spend more for a heat pump unit than you would on a fossil-fuel based heating system. Our temperature climate, though, makes the heat pump more energy efficient and they also have a smaller impact on the environment. Ask us whether you will see a return on your investment, and how long it will take, when you install a heat pump.
