One system, two seasonal jobs
A heat pump transfers heat. In cooling mode, it moves heat out of the house. In heating mode, it moves heat from outdoors into the home. The U.S. Department of Energy explains this operating principle and the main types of heat pumps in its homeowner guide.
The right question is about your property
Whether a heat pump suits a home depends on the property and the proposed system. When discussing replacement, ask the contractor how the equipment fits your comfort needs and existing setup. A generic online efficiency figure is not a prediction of your bill.
What to discuss before a replacement
Describe the rooms that feel uncomfortable, your existing equipment and any recurring repair concerns. Ask which parts of the system are included in the proposal, what installation work is required and how the new equipment will be operated. Request clarification on the scope before approving the quote.
Care and operating instructions matter
Use the instructions for your specific equipment. The controls, maintenance requirements and recommended settings may differ from those of an older system. Ask for operating guidance when equipment is installed or serviced.
