It's important to maintain your system to keep your heat pump working optimally. Keep reading to learn the top five ways to improve your heat pump’s performance.
Change your air filter: During extreme weather your air filters work overtime and collect dirt and grime. This results in clogged filters which cause more energy wastage. Changing your filter every month will boost the working of your HVAC system and avoid respiratory problems like asthma and dust allergies.
Control your thermostat: Using a programmable thermostat will help you adjust the temperature according to the different requirements in a day. If you are going to operate your heat pump in conjunction with a furnace, it is advisable to adjust your thermostat accordingly to provide the energy-efficient warmth you need.
Fix leaky ducts: Ducts perform poorly when they have holes in them and are leaky. Around 20% of air can be lost in ducts that have holes in them. This results in poor heating and cooling and consequently causes a rise in energy bills. Sealing leaky ducts with mastic sealant or metal tapes will ensure that your duct does not lose any air and functions properly. This increases the efficiency of your heat pump by distributing air-conditioned air well.
Cleaning out the floor unit: A heat pump consists of an indoor and outdoor unit. Sometimes the floor unit can get covered with grime, dust and other debris that encounter it. Such obstructions can interfere with your system and affect the performance of your heat pump if not cleaned occasionally.
