Heat Pump California
Heat pump units have been around for a really long time and is not a new thing on the market. I have worked on heat pump systems for 30 years now from commercial to residential units. Southern California weather is great for a heat pump system because we do not often get temperatures below 40 degrees, so the heat pump can operate without issues.
Heat pumps do not operate as efficiently when temperatures drop to between 25 and 40 degrees Fahrenheit for most systems. A heat pump works best when the temperature is above 40. Once outdoor temperatures drop to 40 degrees, heat pumps start losing efficiency, and they consume more energy to do their jobs.
What is Heat Pump unit
A heat pump unit is an air conditioner that reverses the refrigerant flow when you call for heating. During the cooling season the indoor fan coil gets cold by the liquid refrigerant flashing in the evaporator and the fan moves air through the coil absorbing heat. Do you have questions? Please feel free to call 949-770-9616 or leave a comment.
During the winter the refrigerant is reversed causing the compressed hot refrigerant to pass through the hot coil and the indoor fan will transfer the heat to your home.

Why are companies pushing heat pumps?
California homeowner are getting around $3000.00 to remove their gas furnace and replace with heat pump units. This is part of the CLEAN air Furnace Rebate Program. HVAC contractors will get $1000.00 to convert your system. Always remember our electrical costs in CA are expensive and keep rising.
Yes, we all want clean air but make sure you have a really large solar system to cover the expense of running your heat pump during the winter. Choose wisely my friends before just jumping in.
