Super Efficient
These units are very efficient; a new oil furnace would probably have an efficiency rating of 85%, propane around 94% and electric heat is 100%. In comparison, these units are 350% efficient ~ and that’s why you can save 60%-75% in your heating costs.
The average cost per year to run these units is around $500-$600. In January, the monthly bill might be around $120 and in the summer, the air conditioning would cost less than a dollar a day. Most customers find the ROI (return on investment) is very rapid. The savings from the heat pump will pay for itself in 2-3 years.
Heat Pump Technology
The heat pump is run by electricity but it’s NOT electric heat! A heat pump simply transfers heat from one place to another. Even at below zero temperatures, there is still heat in the air as it can always be colder! The condenser unit contains a refrigerant R410A which is in a vapor form. The fan blows the air through the condenser which grabs the heat from the air. It then compressors the vapor into a liquid form and compresses it to boiling point. The liquid is transferred through the copper piping to the inside head and voila ~ heat. It then cycles back to the condenser changing back into vapor. When you reverse this cycle ~ you have air conditioning!
It uses 220, 15 amp double breaker. These heat pumps are very efficient to run due to the inverter technology. Even though it’s 15 amp, it never draws that much electricity. It comes on with a soft start and would draw probably only 7 or 8 amps ~ that’s why it’s so efficient!
Placement
The head is placed in the largest room in the house preferably on an outdoor wall about 4 inches from the ceiling. Open areas such as the dining, kitchen, and living room are usual rooms having good airflow. The compressor and head can be up to 25 ft apart ~ anything further than that would require more refrigerant to be added to the system causing installation costs to go up and efficiency to go down!
