How Do Ducted Heat Pumps Keep Your Space Warm?

A ducted heat pump is a type of heating system that distributes warm air throughout your space using ductwork. It uses significantly less energy than other forms of heating, including wood stoves and space heaters, so you can stay comfortable for less during New England’s cold, snowy winters.

 

The system consists of one or more indoor air handlers that are installed inside your ducts and connected to an outdoor condenser. These units work together to extract heat from outdoor air and move it inside to warm your space. This keeps the air handlers out of sight without compromising your heating capabilities.

Advantages of Ducted Heat Pumps for Home and Business Owners

Ducted heat pumps are a smart investment for home and business owners who want:

Consistent Comfort

Unlike space heaters that can only keep one room warm at a time, a ducted heat pump allows you to keep all the rooms in your space at a consistent temp. This helps eliminate hot and cold spots or sudden changes in temperature.

Heating and AC in One

With a ducted heat pump, you don’t need a separate air conditioner to keep your space cool in the summer. One unit handles both, so you can switch between heating and air conditioning seamlessly. Plus, maintenance is easier with only one unit.

Cleaner Indoor Air

Ducted heat pumps also have advanced filtration capabilities to remove allergens like dust and pet dander from your indoor air. If someone in your home or workplace suffers from asthma or seasonal allergies, switching to a ducted, all-in-one system can help relieve unpleasant symptoms like coughing, sneezing, and watery eyes.

Lower Winter Heating Bills

Because ducted heat pumps don’t generate warmth and only move it from one place to another, they’re significantly more environmentally friendly than other types of heating systems. Even in below-zero temps, these units can still extract heat from the outdoors with 100% efficiency.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Ducted Heat Pumps

What’s the difference between a ducted and a ductless heat pump?

The main difference between a ducted heat pump and a ductless mini-split is how air is distributed throughout your space. Essentially, the air handlers themselves are very similar in technology and design. However, a ducted heat pump goes inside your ducts and uses them to distribute warm air to different rooms. A ductless unit is typically mounted on the wall or near the floor in each room that you want to heat.

Can a ducted heat pump replace my furnace and air conditioner?

Yes, a ducted heat pump can completely replace both your furnace and central air conditioning system. It provides both heating and cooling through a single system, so you don’t have to switch between different units or maintain two pieces of equipment.

How much does a ducted heat pump system cost?

The cost of a ducted heat pump system can vary widely based on factors like the size of your space, existing ductwork, system efficiency rating, and complexity of the installation. We provide a free service quote, so you know exactly what you can expect to pay before agreeing to the work.
