Due to recent improvements in cold tolerance, they're now becoming more popular in the North as well. too. Having looked into heat pump benefits, you may be on this page exactly because you have decided to convert your Oak Park home to a heat pump, and you’re ready for installation.

How a Heat Pump Heats and Cools Your Oak Park Home

A heat pump may look much like an AC, but it's much more than that. Unlike your standard furnace or AC, this device is able to switch seamlessly between heating and cooling your home. When the temperatures rise in Oak Park, your thermostat will trigger the heat pump to turn on the compressor to start cycling the refrigerant. This liquid pulls the heat from your home's air and pumps it outdoors, effectively air conditioning your home.

In colder months, the system reverses, pulling heat out of the outdoor air and pumping it indoors and where it's circulated through your home via a standalone blower or your existing furnace. In the case of geothermal systems, the heat is pulled from under the ground instead of the air.

Heat Pumps Are an Option For Every Home

A truly modular option, heat pumps can be adapted to almost any situation. This is true whether your house is historical or without extensive ductwork. This is because heat pump condensers—the part that goes outside—can be mounted almost anywhere. This includes stands, roofs, and walls. They can also be combined with an existing furnace to create equipment that can brave almost any weather. Their ability to work with almost any existing set-up makes converting to or installing one a breeze. But their versatility really shines when you opt for a ductless heat pump in Oak Park.

If you have a new addition, bonus room, garage or other area where you want to add heating and cooling, a ductless heat pump (or mini-split) may be the most cost-effective way to get it. They are not only highly adaptable but also save you space in what might be an already crowded area. This is because, unlike a new air conditioner or furnace, these systems don't have bulky floor units. Ductless systems also have their own thermostat. This allows guests to control their own comfort with an with ease.
