A heat pump works by transferring heat from one place to another using refrigerant. In heating mode, it extracts heat from the outside air (even in cold temperatures) and transfers it indoors. In cooling mode, it removes heat from indoors and releases it outside.
The size of the heat pump needed depends on factors such as the size of your home, insulation levels, climate, and personal preferences. A professional assessment by our HVAC technician can determine the appropriate size for optimal performance.
Heat pumps are suitable for most climates, but their efficiency may vary depending on the temperature extremes. However, advancements in technology have made heat pumps increasingly effective, even in colder climates.
The installation process involves assessing the property, selecting the appropriate system size, positioning the indoor and outdoor units, and connecting the necessary components. The duration of installation varies depending on factors such as system complexity, property size, and any necessary modifications.
Heat pumps are generally more energy-efficient than traditional heating systems like boilers. They can provide significant savings on energy bills over time.
- It's recommended to service your heat pump annually to maintain optimal performance and manufacturers warrenty.
Signs that your heat pump needs servicing include reduced heating or cooling efficiency, unusual noises, and strange odours.
It's best to hire a professional for heat pump servicing to ensure thorough maintenance and avoid potential damage.
A typical heat pump servicing appointment usually takes between 1 to 2 hours, depending on the complexity of the system and any issues found. If any parts need to be replaced, this will incur an additional cost which will be discussed with you.
A standard heat pump servicing typically includes cleaning filters, inspecting and lubricating components, checking refrigerant levels, and testing system performance.
Yes, both the indoor and outdoor units of your heat pump should be serviced to ensure optimal efficiency and performance.
Regular heat pump servicing helps maintain efficiency, prolongs the system's lifespan, prevents breakdowns, and reduces energy bills.
The cost of heat pump servicing varies depending on factors such as the size and type of the system and any additional repairs needed. Standard heat pump servicing starts at €210 plus VAT.
Between professional servicing appointments, you can help maintain your heat pump by regularly keeping the area around the outdoor unit clear of debris, and monitoring its performance for any signs of issues.
With proper maintenance, a heat pump can last between 10 to 15 years or more. However, factors such as usage, installation quality, and environmental conditions can impact its lifespan.
Yes, a well-installed and properly maintained heat pump can significantly reduce energy bills compared to traditional heating and cooling systems by utilizing energy-efficient technology and renewable energy sources.
