It's an AC that runs in reverse. It's magic, it's efficient, and it's probably what your next HVAC system will be. Meet the Heat Pump.
Unlike a furnace that *makes* heat, a heat pump *moves* heat. In this comprehensive guide, we'll explore why this matters for your home and health.
The Reversing Valve
Unlike a furnace that *makes* heat, a heat pump *moves* heat. In winter, it steals warmth from the outside air (yes, even cool air has heat) and pumps it inside. Because it uses coils for both heating and cooling, keeping these coils clean is doubly important. A dirty coil in winter means a freezing house and a skyrocketing electric bill.Understanding this aspect is crucial for homeowners. Let's delve deeper into the mechanics. When we consider the long-term impact on your HVAC system, addressing the reversing valve becomes a priority. Many homeowners overlook this details, but professional technicians see the results of neglect every day.
