How they work
A heat pump moves heat from outdoor air into the house in winter and the reverse in summer.
Cold-climate models
Newer units keep heating at much lower outdoor temperatures.
Dual fuel
A heat pump paired with a gas furnace uses the heat pump in mild weather and the furnace when it's very cold.
Defrost
In winter the outdoor unit runs defrost cycles and may steam; that's normal.
Snow and ice
Keep the outdoor unit clear and raised above snow.
Repairs
Reversing valves, defrost controls and refrigerant leaks are common repairs.
Incentives
Federal and utility incentives change; ask your contractor what applies now.
Ductless options
Ductless heat pumps work for additions and homes without ducts.
