When it comes to heat pumps in Lakeland, FL, you have a lot of options. To heat and cool your home, you could choose a traditional ducted heat pump.

If only one or two rooms need it, consider ductless heat pump installation, although a sufficient number of indoor units could get installed to keep your entire house comfortable.

Then, there are geothermal units and radiant heating and cooling systems, both of which come with a higher up-front cost but provide serious energy savings in the long run.

I was looking for fast and reliable service and I found it. Excellent! Recommended!

Lakeland Heat Pump Installation Basics

Before you make any decisions on heat pump installation, it’s good to be familiar with how heat pumps operate. With any system, you’ll have at least three components: a compressor, one or more air handlers, and piping for refrigerant.

The compressor goes outside. Depending on whether it’s in heating or cooling mode, it either absorbs heat there or releases it in that location. Refrigerant is the chemical that makes heat transfer possible. One or more air handlers mounted inside your home dispense the warm or cool air.

Traditional heat pumps do require ductwork, but that makes them an awkward fit for older homes that lack it. Historical buildings that would suffer from structural alteration are ideally suited to ductless systems.

Your choice of heat pump will depend not just on how old your home is but also on how large it is. Each system comes with a specific blowing capacity, and if its capacity is too much for the space it’s in, it will heat and cool that space unevenly and wear out quickly.

On the other hand, an undersized unit will struggle to heat and cool the space. That’s why it’s important for our technicians to perform a load calculation.

The technicians will also consider these factors:

The rate at which heat escapes your home
The number of doors and windows in your home
The level of sun exposure your home gets
Insulation levels in the walls and attic

Even the climate of our region influences the recommendations our HVAC technicians make. Once you choose a system, you’ll need to work with the team on things like the placement of the compressor.

After the installation, you should have few problems with the unit though we do recommend annual maintenance. If you accept that wise advice, the need to deal with a heat pump repair should be fairly rare.
