Air Source Heat Pump: The Pros & Cons of the Home Heat Pump

European countries have seen a rapid surge in the popularity of home heat pumps for a variety of reasons. Firstly, these pumps are extremely cost-effective, saving you much money in the long run. Similarly, they have less maintenance cost compared to traditional pumps. Also, air source heat pumps can be accommodated in less space, thus saving you space in your apartment or wherever you want to fix them.

What is an air source heat pump: Its pros and cons. 

Air Source Heat Pumps, or as they are popularly known as ASHPs, are heat pumps that transport heat from outside a building to inside. These pumps can even transport heat from outside to inside the building during the freezing temperature outside.

Some of the prominent benefits of using ASHPs are:

l  Fewer Carbon emissions

Since air is the primary heating source in these home heat pumps, they have low carbon footprints. Some ASHPs also adopts solar panel for clean electricity.

l  Low maintenance and operational costs

In operational terms, you do not need any fuel or natural gas to heat, drastically reducing costs. Similarly, you only need to maintain air source heat pumps once a year, which means reduced maintenance costs as well.

l  Long life span

While the lifespan of home heat pumps depends upon the way you use them, these pumps can traditionally be used for more than 20 years.

l  Efficient heating

Less thermal losses in this heating mechanism mean you get your house warmed easily for less money.

However, these pumps have some downsides as well, including:

l  High capital investment

Although the maintenance and operation fees are relatively low, the upfront cost of these pumps is higher compared to traditional heating systems.

l  Low efficiency in freezing temperatures

When the temperature goes below the freezing point, the efficiency of these pumps tends to decrease.

l  Temperature limitation

The bigger the gap is, the lower efficiency it will get. Therefore, they are costly in certain situations.

l  Noise Issue

The air passing through the heat exchanger within the home heat pumps causes vibrations, eventually producing noise.
