FAQs
How does a heat pump provide both heating and cooling?
A heat pump uses refrigeration technology to move heat rather than burn fuel to create it. In winter, it extracts thermal energy from the outdoor air and transfers it indoors through a refrigerant cycle and a compressor. In summer, the process reverses: the system removes heat from your home and releases it outside, functioning like a high-efficiency air conditioner. A single unit therefore delivers year-round comfort for McDonald homes.
Will a heat pump work efficiently in McDonald’s climate?
Yes. Modern cold-climate air-source heat pumps are engineered to operate efficiently in outdoor temperatures well below freezing—common in McDonald winters. Variable-speed compressors and advanced refrigerants enable these units to maintain comfortable indoor temperatures with minimal backup heat. Our team sizes each system accurately for local weather data so you enjoy reliable performance and low energy bills.
How much can I save on utility bills by switching to a heat pump?
Savings vary by home size, insulation level, and current heating fuel. Compared with electric resistance or older oil/propane furnaces, homeowners often see 30–60 % lower heating costs. In cooling mode, today’s high-SEER heat pumps can cut air-conditioning electricity use by 20–40 % versus units that are 10–15 years old. We provide a free cost-of-operation analysis so you can see payback estimates specific to your McDonald residence.
Do heat pumps require special maintenance?
Routine care is straightforward. Homeowners should replace or clean air filters every 1–3 months and keep outdoor units clear of leaves, snow, and debris. Professional service—preferably each spring and fall—includes refrigerant checks, coil cleaning, electrical testing, and software updates. Regular maintenance preserves efficiency, prevents unexpected breakdowns, and protects manufacturer warranties.
How long does a heat pump last?
With proper installation and semi-annual maintenance, most air-source heat pumps serve 12–15 years, and some reach 20 years. Inverter-driven compressors cycle at lower speeds, reducing wear and often extending lifespan. When the time comes, upgrading is simple because existing ductwork and electrical connections are already in place.
Can a heat pump be added to my existing ductwork or do I need a ductless system?
We offer both options. If your home already has sound, well-sized ductwork, a central ducted heat pump can connect directly, minimizing renovation costs. For homes without ducts—or for additions, sunrooms, and finished basements—ductless mini-split heat pumps provide zoned comfort without major construction. Our comfort specialists will inspect your property and recommend the best solution for performance, aesthetics, and budget.
