Air source heat pumps are available in two configurations for residential units: central systems with duct or ductless mini-split systems.
Ductless Split systems are energy efficient compared to traditional HVAC systems. These systems can adjust their output to match the heating or cooling needs with the inverter technology. They offer several benefits in terms of installation flexibility, improved air quality and quiet operation. They provide year-round comfort by providing both heating and cooling. The efficiency and performance depend on proper installation and regular maintenance.
There are many products with different performance levels and price. Obviously the higher the performance is, the higher the price will be. The heat pump efficiency in summer is shown by Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) and in winter is shown by Heating Seasonal Performance factor (HSPF). SEER and HSPF are the most important performance numbers to look for.

An air source heat pump is a highly efficient system that extracts heat from outside air and transfers it inside to warm your home. It can also reverse the process for cooling in the summer.
ASHPs use a refrigerant to capture heat from the air outside, even when it feels cold. They compress this heat to increase the temperature, then transfer this warmth indoors via a heat exchanger.
Air source heat pumps work well in most climates. Homes with good insulation will see the most significant benefits. Consider factors like climate, home size, and your heating/cooling needs.
Costs vary depending on size, brand, features, and installation complexity. Expect to pay within a wide range (consult local installers for accurate quotes).
No, air source heat pump installation requires specialized knowledge and tools. Always hire a qualified and licensed professional to ensure proper setup and safety.
Popular and well-respected brands include Daikin, Mitsubishi, Samsung, LG, Panasonic, and many others. You can research specific models or consult an HVAC professional for guidance.
