Heat Pumps
What is a heat pump?
A heat pump is a sustainable heating and cooling system that moves heat from one place to another. Unlike traditional heating systems that burn fuel or use electrical resistance to generate heat, heat pumps use a refrigerant cycle to move heat.
In heating mode, a heat pump extracts heat from outside air (even in cold weather) and brings it inside. In cooling mode, the process is reversed, heat is extracted from the inside air and sent outside. This dual function makes heat pumps great for winter heating and summer cooling.

Benefits of Heat Pumps
Energy Efficiency
Low Running Costs: Heat pumps are one of the most energy-efficient heating options in New Zealand. For every unit of electricity used, they can produce 3-4 units of heat, that’s 300%-400% efficient. That means lower power bills than traditional electric heaters.
Cost-Effective Cooling: In summer, heat pumps can also be used as air conditioners, with no need for separate systems.
Environmental Benefits
Lower Carbon Emissions: Since heat pumps use electricity to move heat rather than burning fossil fuels, they have a lower carbon footprint than gas heaters or wood burners. They contribute to New Zealand’s carbon reduction goals.
Use of Eco-Friendly Refrigerants: Modern heat pumps use refrigerants like R32, which have a lower Global Warming Potential (GWP) than older refrigerants, they are more eco-friendly.
Dual Functionality (Heating & Cooling)
Heat pumps do heating in winter and cooling in summer as they offer a year-round solution. This dual function adds to their cost effectiveness as you don’t need separate systems for each function.
