Dual fuel boiler offers cost-saving benefits
For the majority of the year, my good friend and I rely on the heat pump for comfort
A couple of years ago, our furnace quit completely. The boiler was too seasoned plus seasoned to make a repair worthwhile, replacing the heating system was the smart choice. This presented an ideal opportunity to replace to central air conditioner. Since moving into the home nearly ten years before, we’d gotten by with window air conditioning systems plus box fans. When I asked the Heating plus Air Conditioning supplier who was handling the furnace upgrade about cooling options, he recommended choosing a heat pump. Since a heat pump is far more high-priced to purchase than an air conditioning system, my fiance plus I were skeptical. However, once my good friend and I did some research, my good friend and I changed our minds. Pairing an electric heat pump plus a gas furnace into a dual fuel system provides a lot of cost saving benefit. The advantage of a heat pump is that it’s far more energy efficient than a furnace. The system works by simply moving heat between the indoors plus the outdoors. In cooling mode, it operates just like a conventional air conditioning system. In heating mode, it reverses the flow of refrigerant plus pulls ambient heat from the outdoor air. The process avoids the safety plus health risks of the combustion of fossil fuels. It significantly lessens impact on the environment plus running costs. It’s also helpful that the heat pump effectively handles excess humidity in summer time plus won’t overly dry out the air while in the winter. My pal and I chose a top-of-the-line heat pump that features adjustable-speed technology, which maintains unquestionably even indoor temperature plus achieves outstanding efficiency ratings. For the majority of the year, my good friend and I rely on the heat pump for comfort. When the temperature drops below freezing, the system switches to the furnace. The furnace is powerful enough to handle the especially cold weather.
