Ductless heat pumps are becoming a popular choice for homeowners who want to improve their heating and cooling efficiency. If you are thinking about installing a ductless heat pump in your home, there are a few things you need to know. First, you shall need to have a furnace or another heating source already in place.

That means that your furnace will still be your primary heating source, however the ductless heat pump will help to reduce your energy costs. You’ll also need to have your Heating and Air Conditioning system professionally diagnosed before installing a ductless heat pump. This is because the replacement process can be complex, and you shall want to make sure that your Heating and Air Conditioning system is operating properly before adding another element to it. Once your Heating and Air Conditioning system is ready, you can start shopping for a ductless heat pump. Look for a unit that is sized properly for your home and that has features like a WIFI thermostat and remote control operation. With a little research and planning, you can definitely install a ductless heat pump in your home and start enjoying the benefits of improved heating and cooling efficiency.
