A simple example of a typical heat pump can be found in the home, where split DX systems are often installed to provide cooling in summer, and heating in winter. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Heat pumps are not new technology, but have advanced significantly in recent years, as they have been applied to buildings to provide heating and cooling, as a low carbon alternative to traditional fossil fueled heating equipment.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Heat pumps use electricity to provide heating and \/ or cooling. The ratio of electrical energy input to heating output is referred to as the Coefficient of Performance (COP). Heat pumps typically have a COP in the range of 3.0 to 5.0, that is, they are 300-500% efficient. The most efficient natural gas furnaces have an efficiency of 95%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As natural gas is typically one third the cost of electricity in our province, heat pumps will need to operate at COPs of 3.0 or greater to have an equivalent (or better) operating cost that traditional gas fired heating equipment.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-color wp-block-heading\" style=\"color:#182d3f\"><strong><strong>Heat Pump Types<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Heat pumps are typically broken into <strong>Water Source (WSHP) <\/strong>and<strong> Air Source (ASHP)<\/strong> types and can be used for building heat\/cooling applications, as well as the generation of domestic hot water.&nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-color wp-block-heading\" style=\"color:#182d3f\"><strong><strong><strong>Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs)<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>ASHPs typically use outdoor air to extract or reject heat, although certain heat pumps can be used internally as well, typically in parkade structures, where ambient temperatures remain stable, year-round. ASHPs can use hydronics or refrigerant as the thermal energy transfer medium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"856\" height=\"313\" src=\"https:\/\/impacteng.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Picture2.png\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"7298\" class=\"wp-image-7298\" srcset=\"https:\/\/impacteng.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Picture2.png 856w, https:\/\/impacteng.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Picture2-300x110.png 300w, https:\/\/impacteng.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Picture2-768x281.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 856px) 100vw, 856px\" \/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\"><strong>AERMEC + TRANSOM Air to Water Heat Pumps (Air to Water Type)<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>ASHPs are typically installed in milder climates (such as the Lower Mainland), where winter design conditions are -9<sup>o<\/sup>C (16<sup>o<\/sup>F).
