Think of a heat pump as an air conditioner that can work in both directions. In summer it pulls heat out of your home; in winter a reversing valve flips the refrigerant flow, and the same compressor draws heat from the outdoor air and brings it inside. Because it moves heat instead of creating it, a heat pump can deliver two to three times more heat energy than the electricity it uses, which is a big reason homeowners in Valdosta, GA are making the switch as older systems wear out. Today's cold-climate models, built around variable-speed inverter compressors, keep producing useful heat well below freezing, far beyond the heat pumps of twenty years ago.
The repairs homeowners call us about most are AC Repair and Furnace Repair. Start there if your system isn't running right.

- Your utility offers rebates that favor heat pump conversions
- Your AC and furnace are both aging and you would rather replace once, not twice
- You are electrifying the house or pairing major loads with solar
