Heat Pumps: An Efficient, Comfortable Alternative to Electric Resistance Heating

December 28, 2022 By Jay Moody HVAC Leave a Comment

What makes heat pumps a great alternative to electric resistance heating? Let’s discuss how the two systems compare and why you may want to make the switch to heat pumps!

1. Heat Pumps Are More Efficient Than Electric Resistance Systems

To start, heat pumps are much more cost effective than electric resistance heating, such as furnaces and baseboard heaters.

According to Energy Star, heat pumps can cut electricity use by 50% compared to electric resistance heating and can be 2-3x more efficient than oil or propane systems.

With the rise of Massachusetts utility rates, improved energy efficiency is the key to reducing your utility costs!

2. Heat Pumps Offer Improved Comfort Options

As you evaluate whether or not heat pumps are the right fit for your home, it’s important to keep in mind the different types of heat pumps systems that can be installed to best suit your home’s needs.

Mini-split heat pumps are a great option for many homes since they offer room-by-room temperature control, can be ducted or ductless, and include in-unit dehumidification. These additional comfort options do wonders for the comfort and air quality of your home.

3. Heat Pumps Can Efficiently Heat And Cool Your Home

A heat pump’s ability to offer energy efficient heating and cooling ensures home comfort year-round. As a Massachusetts homeowner, you are investing in a system that can be utilized for more than just a few months out of the year!

We hope this discussion has helped your understanding of heat pumps as an alternative to electric resistance heating. For more HVAC information and resources check out our blog.

  • Both technicians were friendly and likable. They obviously knew their stuff and were in and out in about 3 hours. The electrician came later while I was out and did his part before I returned. All good.

  • Fixed wiring problem to match the thermostat wires to bring the A/C system up successfully. Also sealed the hole for the wire to prevent small animals and/or water from entering the house.

  • We are replacing an old oil based central heat and ac system. Jay Moody has been insightful, responsive, and professional. Their work is quality and the crew is respectful. They communicate thoroughly throughout the project. I got several quotes and opinions before going with Jay Moody. Overall, I strongly recommend them for HVAC work.

  • I have been with these people since I bought my home. My 1st year was more than trying. Not only did these people help me but the owner came out because I was getting all kind of confused. He not only explained things but he told me what would work and what would work. At the end of the day they couldn't help me with the problem. Most companies would drop you and be a bit agitated with my ignorance regarding my needs. The patients, knowledge, honesty and professionalism was and is phenomenal. The work with you in pricing they really treat you like family. After dealing with the other places in my area this company and the people in it was like a cool tall drink of water.πŸ’ͺπŸΏπŸ‘πŸΏ
