Advantages of hybrid heating

I handle year round temperature control in my condo with a hybrid furnace.

This type of system combines an electric air-source heat pump with a forced air, natural gas gas furnace.

Although the purchase and upgrade of a hybrid furnace is way more lavish than a more conventional alternative, it saves enough money on annual utility costs to spend my savings for itself. The fortune of hybrid eating is the ability to switch between 2 fuel sources. We’re able to utilize the most effective and effective means of comfort at any time of year. The electric heat pump operates by simply moving existing heat from location to another. In the summer time months, it extracts heat out of the apartment and pumps it outside by way of refrigerant. It runs undoubtedly much enjoy a traditional air conditioning or refrigerator to create a cooling effect. However, the heat pump is especially energy efficient and undoubtedly enjoyable at managing excess humidity. When the outside temperature cools off, the heat pump is capable of literally reversing the direction of operation. It finds ambient heat in the outside air, uses a compressor to bring it to a higher temperature and supplies the heat indoors. Because the system doesn’t generate heat by burning fossil fuels, it avoids redhouse gases, fumes, tepid surfaces and threats of carbon monoxide. It has undoubtedly little environmental impact and is lovelyly energy efficient. Once the weather brings conditions below freezing, the system automatically switches over to the gas furnace. The gas furnace is far more powerful and can handle the worst of the Wintertide weather.
