Having a reliable heat pump / air con installer fit your home with the most energy efficient form of electric heating you can install in your home.
Heat pumps (or ‘reverse cycle air conditioners’) use the same technology as your refrigerator but in reverse, to heat your home. They work by taking heat from the air outside your house and transferring it inside, using a sophisticated compressor, fan and refrigerant gases.
In New Zealand, heating is the primary reason that people buy a heat pump. Virtually all heat pumps available are “reverse-cycle”, which means they can be used for both heating and cooling – great on hot summer days and nights. A heat pump in your bedroom can help you sleep more comfortably and you don’t have to run it all night – often just a few hours as you go to bed is enough to improve your sleep.
Most heat pumps also have a dehumidifying option as well to assist with condensation control.
With so many heat pump brands and heat pump sizes, making a decision on the right heat pump can be confusing!
