How do heat pumps work?

A heat pump is a high efficiency system that can transfer heat energy to and from your home. This means it can both heat and cool your home for year round comfort.

There are two main categories of heat pumps

Cold climate air source

  • Use the air to transfer heat into and out of your home.
  • Cold climate air source heat pumps are a type of air source heat pump specially designed to work in temperatures as low as -30°C.
  • Air source heat pumps are the most popular type in Canada.

Ground source

  • Use the ground to transfer heat into and out of your home.
  • Because underground temperatures are warmer and more stable than air temperatures in the winter, ground source heat pumps operate more efficiently than other types of heat pumps at lower temperatures.
  • May be best for properties with space available for underground loops.

Qualified Products

The installed heat pump must be an active unit on Natural Resources Canada’s qualified products list for either cold climate air source or ground source heat pumps. Work with a participating HVAC contractor to understand your options and choose the best heat pump for your home.
