A Review Of The Best Ducted Heat Pumps

How you heat and cool your home can make a big difference in how comfortable your home environment is, as well as how big your electricity bills are. Central heating and cooling also known commonly as ducted heat pumps are two separate systems that use the same ducts and thermostat to heat or cool your house. They work together in symphony to keep your house a comfortable temperature no matter what the weather is outside.

Central heating and cooling works by forced air. In this system type, air from your furnace or air conditioner is forced through ducts around your house. While other methods exist, such as gravity systems, none of those systems can do both hot and cold air.

This system is often referred to as HVAC for short, or Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning.
