Homeowners considering heat pumps often wonder if they're worth the extra cost compared to traditional systems. Energy expert David Hilton emphasizes the importance of evaluating three main factors: the type of heat pump, installation costs, and overall performance. Heat pumps work by transferring heat from one location to another and come in three primary types—air source, ground source, and water source—each with its own implications for efficiency and costs. Ultimately, careful consideration is necessary to assess whether a heat pump makes sense for your home's heating needs.
In essence, heat pumps essentially move heat from one place to another, enhancing it before transferring it to the home's central heating system.
