Keeping your space warm and cool
One of the biggest headaches any home or business owner has to deal with is how to keep their homes and workplaces comfortable for their families or employees. One factor that determines a home or office’s comfort level is the indoor temperature.
This is where heat pumps come in. With them, you can essentially “kill two birds with one stone” as they can heat or cool your home or workplace. And that’s not all—they’re also very energy-efficient and eco-friendly compared to other climate control systems.
But simply installing any heat pump for your space won’t always work; you need to choose the best heat pumps in NZ if you want to get the maximum benefit for your home or office.
How to choose the perfect heat pump for your home or office
Here are a few things to consider when choosing one of the best heat pumps in NZ for your home or workplace.
THE CAPACITY
If your heat pump is too small, it may need to work harder to cool down your home or office, and this could lead to higher electricity bills and may even cause the pump to wear down faster. So make sure to choose a heat pump that’s the right size to meet your needs.
THE COMPRESSOR TYPE
Heat pumps come with one of two compressor types: single-speed and variable-speed. Single-speed compressors operate at full blast. Variable-speed compressors, on the other hand, continuously adjust the temperature. Choose whichever is most convenient for your space.
NOISE LEVELS
Manufacturers of heat pumps usually indicate the noise levels in the manual. The noise estimates cover different fan speeds and temperatures. So if you’re worried about your heat pump being too noisy, take a look at the manual for noise estimates for the pump.
CLIMATE
The climate you’re living in can have an effect on the performance of your heat pump. If you live in an area where the temperature rarely dips, a regular heat pump will be fine, but if you live in a cold area, you should pick a heat pump that’s made for cold climates.
