Heat Pump
Heat Pump Services in Fairfield County
Heat pumps provide year-round comfort by transferring heat rather than generating it. A single system can efficiently heat and cool your home, helping reduce energy use and operating costs through Fairfield County’s changing seasons.
Proper installation and expert service are essential for reliable performance. CELCO Heating and Air Conditioning’s NATE-certified technicians size, install, repair, and maintain heat pumps for homeowners in Fairfield, CT and throughout Southern Connecticut, including the Bridgeport area.
How Does a Heat Pump Work?
Just like an air conditioner, in some respects. A heat pump removes heat from the air in a home during the summer season by evaporating refrigerant in the evaporator coil, and then dispersing that heat in the air outside by condensing that refrigerant in the condenser coil. That is just how a central AC operates. What sets the heat pump apart is its ability to reverse this operation in order to heat a home, as well.
Even in the winter, there is thermal energy in the air. A component called a reversing valve allows the heat pump to evaporate refrigerant in the outdoor coil, drawing heat out of the air. That refrigerant is then compressed, boosting its thermal energy, and it is condensed at the indoor coil. Its heat is then used to heat the house.
Our team also provides heat pump service in Trumbull and Darien.
Benefits of Using a Heat Pump in Fairfield County
A major benefit of the heat pump is what we just discussed above. The ability to heat and cool one’s home with just one system is a perk that really draws attention. However, there is also the incredible efficiency with which the heat pump heats the house to consider.
Because the heat pump transfers existing heat into the home, rather than burning fuel or using electricity to generate new heat, it is a very affordable way in which to keep warm during the winter season. Modern heat pumps do better than ever in cold climates like ours, too, though their efficiency may slip a bit in very cold weather.
