Whether you're building a new home, or simply replacing your old and worn heating and cooling system, consider installing a new electric heat pump as a modern and reliable answer to your heating and cooling needs.
The electric heat pump is becoming increasingly popular for residential and commercial building, and the reason for the popularity is simple; the heat pump delivers more heat energy to a home or building than it consumes in electrical energy.
You can get specific information on heat pumps that will help you decide if a heat pump is right for your home from an authorized heat pump dealer or from the Member Services Department of Deaf Smith Electric Cooperative, (806) 364-1166.
Home Owner's Checklist:
When planning the installation of an electric heat pump, there are a number of specific items that you'll want to review with your contractor:
- Is the contractor a qualified heat pump installer?
- Is your insulation adequate?
- Does the proposed system have a properly located cooling and two-state heating thermostat?
- Is your existing or proposed duct work adequate for a heat pump?
- Does the system have a manually operated emergency heat switch?
- Have you discussed the availability of an extended maintenance and service contract with you contractor?
