If you have an air conditioning system that matches that description, or if it has already exceeded its manufacturer\u2019s estimated lifespan, then you should grab these tapering weeks of spring to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.climatemastersfl.com\/contact\/service\" target=\"_blank\">schedule a new installation<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>However, you do not need to install another air conditioner. You have another option: a heat pump. There are some major advantages to opting for heat pump installation in St. Augustine, FL rather than a standard air conditioner.<\/p>\n<p>Call Climate Masters today to talk to one of our trained HVAC installers abut heat pumps vs. air conditioners. Your home may be ideal for a heat pump, and if it is, you should let our experienced technicians handle the job of installing it for you before the summer arrives.<\/p>\n<h3>The heat pump advantage<\/h3>\n<p>The #1 benefit of having a heat pump in your home is that it solves two problems at once. A heat pump is both an air conditioning system and a heating system. It isn\u2019t a packaged unit with a separate AC and heater put together; a heat pump uses the same action\u2014moving heat from one location to another\u2014to deliver heating and cooling. When you have a heat pump installed, you won\u2019t need to have a furnace or boiler installed as well.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to heating, Florida is well-suited to take full advantage of a heat pump. Locations that experience cold climates can pose trouble for heat pumps, since they will struggle to remove sufficient heat from the outdoor air to move indoors. However, Florida rarely experiences low temperatures that could make the heat pump\u2019s job difficult.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll save money on your heating bills with a heat pump working for you. Because heat pumps do not burn energy to create heat, instead using a smaller amount of electricity to move heat from one place to another, they are more energy-friendly than furnaces or boilers. A family of four can save 30% off their energy bills with the switch from a furnace to a heat pump.<\/p>\n<p>As far as their air conditioning power, heat pumps are the equal of any standalone AC of comparable size. You won\u2019t sacrifice any comfort for the summer when you replace your current system with a heat pump, and you\u2019ll also have your heating covered as well.<\/p>\n<h3>Find out if a heat pump is the best choice<\/h3>\n<p>A heat pump isn\u2019t ideal for every home, since there is no such thing as a \u201cone size fits all\u201d HVAC system.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>You can contact Climate Masters today to find out if you have one of those homes.
