Tips for using your heat pump

Installing a heat pump is the first step in ensuring you have the most efficient technology to meet your home's heating and cooling needs. Using your heat pump properly and maintaining it regularly will offer you the best performance, energy savings, and the most lifespan out of your unit.

Winter heat pump tips
1. Set the heat pump temperature for comfort.
If your indoor unit is mounted near the ceiling, you may need to set a higher temperature than what you set your electric baseboard thermostat. This is because heat rises, and the temperature sensor is within the ceiling unit.
If you also have electric baseboard heaters, turn them down 5 to10℃ lower than your usual setting). This lets the heat pump do the work, and they’re up to 300% more efficient than baseboard heaters.
2. Set it and forget it.
Heat pumps operate most efficiently when holding a steady temperature. If settings are frequently adjusted, the unit needs to work harder to come back to the desired temperature.
Avoid making big temperature changes; they may cost you more money and comfort.
Make sure the unit is set to "heat" and not "auto". The auto mode allows the heat pump to decide whether to heat or cool the space, but it doesn't always know best.
3. Check your indoor and outdoor units.
Regularly remove debris and snow around the premise to maintain air flow. Your outdoor unit works hard to move heat around.
Make sure the area around the indoor unit isn’t cluttered. Couches, cabinets and curtains can prevent air circulation.
