DOES YOUR HOME REQUIRE A GAS LINE TO OPERATE HEAT PUMPS?Gas lines are not required to operate heat pumps, either ductless or air-source, as they are an electric heating and cooling system.
-
IS EXISTING DUCTWORK REQUIRED TO INSTALL A HEAT PUMP?No, there are Mini-split systems (also known as Ductless units) that can be installed in homes that do not have any ductwork. Ductless heat pumps operate more efficiently than baseboard heating and offer both heating and cooling varieties.
-
HOW OFTEN SHOULD A HEAT PUMP BE SERVICED?Heat Pumps should be serviced annually. During an inspection, the technician will have a look at the units to make sure the motors, all connections to ensure that everything is operating safely. Don't forget to show them where you have your Carbon Monoxide detector - your safety is our priority.
-
FEATURES TO LOOK FOR WHEN CONSIDERING A HEAT PUMP:Efficiency Size and placement of the indoor units (for ductless installations) Temperature control - remote or wall-mounted thermostat
HOW DOES AN HRV WORK?

Heat Recovery Ventilators (HRV) improve indoor air quality by blowing out the old air and bringing fresh air inside your home in an energy-efficient way. It does not require any external furnace or air conditioning for it to function. An HRV functions in the following way:
-
The old stale air from your house is made to pass through the HRV. The previously stored heat warms the plates of the heat exchanger.
-
As soon as the plates get heated up, the HRV introduces clean and fresh outdoor air inside your home.
-
The process is repeated cyclically, ensuring the pollutants get evacuated from your home and you are provided with fresh air all the time.
HOW DOES AN ERV WORK?

Energy Recovery Ventilators (ERV) transfer heat/cooling energy and water vapour to provide healthy air. It improves energy efficiency and increases cost savings while maintaining a consistent indoor temperature and circulating fresh air throughout your home. An ERV works on a similar principle as that of HRV. Still, it includes an added step of transferring moisture from the outgoing air into the incoming clean, fresh air to maintain the humidity in your home at a constant level. Our energy recovery ventilators also remove excess humidity to enhance comfort and efficiency.
