Great Heat Pumps in Franklin
Heat pumps work thanks to a substance called refrigerant. Refrigerant works to absorb heat and transfer it to another location. During the winter months, refrigerant will absorb heat from the air outside and bring it into your home to warm it up. During the summer, it will transfer heat from inside your home to the outdoors to cool your home. Heat pumps are a versatile HVAC option that provides both heating and cooling for year-round comfort.
Heat pumps are available in both standard and ductless mini-split options. Standard options rely on traditional ductwork to deliver hot or cold air throughout various rooms of your home. Ductless mini-split systems use multiple indoor air handler units to deliver treated air instead of using traditional ductwork. Both offer a very high operating efficiency, with ductless units offering slightly more due to their lack of air loss through ductwork.
We recommend routine heat pump service to keep your unit in good working condition. It’s best to consider servicing in the early spring to prepare for the summer and in the early fall to prepare for the winter. This service is necessary to sustain the warranty coverage on your heat pump and goes a long way in ensuring safe and efficient operation.
