A heat pump heats your home in winter and cools it in summer, and today's models can bring warm air indoors even when it is cold outside. At 1st Service Heating and Air, we help homeowners in Richmond, Winchester, Lexington and nearby towns choose, install and repair heat pump systems. Efficiency matters, but it is not the only thing to think about. Some heat pumps are quieter than others, and some do a better job of keeping humidity at a safe level inside your home. We are happy to talk through the differences with you. When you shop, you will see two ratings. SEER measures efficiency in the cooling season, and HSPF measures efficiency in the heating season. Every manufacturer has to rate its equipment through testing required by the Department of Energy, so you can see what you are getting. A higher rating is easier on your utility bill. You will pay more up front for a higher efficiency model, but the savings in operating costs can help pay back the investment over time, and higher efficiency units often have other useful features. The indoor and outdoor units need to match, which is one more reason a proper installation matters. Build quality counts as well. A powder-painted coating helps fight rust over the years, louvered grilles keep debris like lawn mower clippings and hail out of the coil, and a heavy steel cabinet helps the outdoor unit last and look good. Better units are also much quieter, and at low to medium speeds you may barely hear one running. We back our installations with a 2-year workmanship warranty and a 100% satisfaction guarantee, and we offer flexible financing. Our VIP Maintenance Plan covers two tune-ups a year to keep a heat pump running at its best. Call us for a free estimate.
