Why Your Heat Pump Matters
Heat pumps transfer warm air from outside to heat your home in winter. The process is reversed to transfer cold air from outside so your home stays comfortable and cool during the summer. Because heat pumps transfer warm air rather than create it like furnaces do, they can run at up to an amazing 400% energy-efficiency rate. Yup, you heard that right: 400%!

Frequently Asked Questions
Is a heat pump more energy-efficient than a furnace and AC?
Yes. Because they transfer cool and warm air rather than create it, heat pumps are more energy-efficient than furnaces and air conditioners. This can lead to significant savings on your energy bills.
Do I need a furnace with a heat pump?
Twin Cities winters are very cold, which can sometimes reduce the efficiency of heat pumps. To solve this issue, consider a hybrid system, which combines a heat pump with a gas furnace. Homeowners with a hybrid comfort system use their heat pump for most heating and cooling needs and then switch to their furnace when temperatures dip well below freezing.
What happens if your heat pump’s reversing valve is stuck?
Reversing valves can become stuck if they’re damaged, frozen, or have debris or dirt buildup. An HVAC technician can diagnose the problem and provide the right solution.
How often should you maintain a heat pump?
Plan on scheduling a heat pump maintenance appointment at least twice each year — once before the heating season and once before the cooling season.
Do heat pumps and mini-splits work when it gets really cold?
A heat pump or ductless mini-split system will still work to heat your home as temperatures reach freezing, but they start to lose efficiency and need to work harder to provide the same level of heat. Below freezing, you’ll see efficiency the same as or worse than a furnace, and as the temperature lowers, the furnace will pull ahead substantially. Of course, a heat pump is as much as 3 to 4 times as efficient as a furnace during optimal temperatures, so it’s still a great investment for efficiency!
