Heat Pumps in St. Louis. Heat pumps have become an increasingly popular alternative for heating and cooling St. Louis area home, because of their efficiency and versatility. SmartHouse has helped many St. Louis homeowners replace their old AC units and supplement their furnaces with heat pump technology, so they can reduce their annual heating and cooling costs while gaining complete control over their home comfort. Read on to see what all the buzz is about when it comes to heat pump installation, and see if a heat pump is right for your St. Louis home.
Throughout the St. Louis area summer months, heat pumps work just like a highly efficient air conditioner: they transfer the heat and humidity inside your home to the outside, and provide cooler, more comfortable indoor air. They differ from air conditioners in the added benefit of their ability to reverse this cycle and provide heat in cooler St. Louis temperatures.
In the winter months, a heat pump finds heat in the air outside (even at nearly freezing temperatures) and brings it indoors, where it is sent to the rooms of your St. Louis home. On the rare nights where the temperatures drop below the range that a heat pump can draw enough heat to keep your St. Louis home comfortable, you can supplement with your existing gas furnace or boiler.
Heat pumps in St. Louis can be installed in-line with your existing ductwork, to be used as a whole home heating and cooling solution. There are also individual heat pumps, called ductless mini-splits, that can be installed directly into the room or area that needs additional cooling. These mini splits utilize the same heat pump technology, without needing ductwork.
