Increasingly common in Quebec homes, heat pumps are generating growing interest and offer ever more functions, to ensure optimal home comfort and energy savings.<\/span><\/p>\n

How do heat pumps work?<\/h4>\n

In brief, heat pumps are simple systems that merely transfer heat from one place to another, using a duct system and refrigerant fluid: in winter, heat is moved indoors, but in summer, is transferred outdoors. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

4 criteria for determining heat pump efficiency<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Coefficient of Performance (CP)<\/h4>\n

CP is a number that rates heat pump efficiency, calculated as follows: divide the amount of heat trans-ferred by the heat pump by the amount of electricity consumed. A high CP for a heat pump is a good indication of the device\u2019s efficiency.<\/span><\/p>\n

Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER)<\/h4>\n

This second efficiency measurement indicates a heat pump\u2019s cooling capacity in standard conditions: 35\u00b0C outdoor temperature, 26\u00b0C indoor temperature and 50% humidity. EER indicates the ratio be-tween cooling capacity and electricity consumed. A high EER indicates good energy performance and thus energy savings on electricity.<\/span><\/p>\n

Seasonal<\/i><\/b> Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER)<\/b><\/h4>\n

The Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) measures heat pump efficiency in air conditioning mode under conditions deemed average for an air conditioning season: 28\u00b0C outdoor temperature and constant indoor temperature of approximately 20\u00b0C. Since 2015, all air conditioning devices sold must have an energy efficiency rating (SEER) exceeding 14.5.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here is a line of heat pumps renowned for their efficiency and quality, sold by Allard & Emond :<\/b><\/p>\n

Daikin wall-mounted heat pump<\/a><\/h4>\n

Inconspicuous and quiet, Daikin wall-mounted heat pumps feature variable-speed compressors and Invert technology. Save with these heat pumps SEER rated at 20 and EER rated at 13!<\/span><\/p>\n

WaterFurnace geothermal heat pump<\/a><\/h4>\n

WaterFurnace geothermal heat pumps are one of the world\u2019s top-performing heating systems, as proven by a EER cooling rating of 41 and heating CP of 5.3. An even more attractive option is the Wa-terFurnace hydronic heat pump, a water-to-water system.<\/span><\/p>\n

Goodman central heat pump<\/a><\/h4>\n

With a high Seasonal Energy Efficiency Rating of SEER 15 to 18, Goodman products are very popular due to their efficiency and competitive prices.<\/span><\/p>\n

York central heat pump<\/a><\/h4>\n

Models designed by York, with SEER ratings up to 20, will be your ally in the battle to control energy use and costs. Your home comfort is assured at a lower cost.<\/span><\/p>\n

Daikin central heat pump<\/a><\/h4>\n

With excellent efficiency both winter and summer, the Daikin central heat pump (SEER rated up to 20) is much more compact and quieter than normal heat pumps.<\/span><\/p>\n
