A wall-mounted and central heat pump store serving Cap-Rouge and the entire region, FixAC also offers installation, repair, and maintenance services for these heating and cooling units. Our team carries all models available from major manufacturers.
In winter, wall-mounted and central heat pumps extract the heat contained in the outside air (which always retains some level of energy even in cold weather). The compressor then compresses this thermal energy to increase its temperature, while the fan pushes the generated heat into the rooms of your home or business. This heating method is very eco-friendly since outside air is a free renewable energy source!
Heat pumps can serve as the main heating system (if more than one unit is installed) or as a secondary system. In summer, the unit captures the coolness in the outside air and distributes it indoors. A dehumidification function may also be included, depending on the model selected.
With an energy efficiency at least three times higher than baseboards, wall-mounted and central heat pumps allow you to save significantly on your annual electricity costs, whether for heating or cooling.
In addition, unlike baseboard heating, where hot air runs along walls and accumulates at the ceiling, heat pump heating provides better comfort by circulating air throughout the entire room. These units are quiet and can be easily programmed to meet your specific needs.
Several features are available: a timer, a turbo mode that quickly cools or heats a specific room, remote cell phone control, an air purification option (on many models), a filter cleaning indicator, and a sweep mode (fan directing airflow vertically or horizontally).
To determine the energy efficiency of a wall-mounted or central heat pump, you need to check its performance coefficient in the winter season and its SEER rating (for cooling). The higher these numbers, the more efficient and cost-effective the unit will be.
When purchasing your heat pump, the cost may be a little higher than another heating system, but government grants are available, and you’ll gain long-term profitability.
