Heat Pump

Heat pump is a term for a type of air conditioner in which the refrigeration cycle is able to be reversed, producing heat instead of cold in the indoor environment. They are also commonly referred to, and marketed as, a reverse cycle air conditioner. Using an air conditioner in this way to produce heat is significantly more efficient than electric resistance heating. Some home-owners elect to have a heat pump system installed, which is actually simply a central air conditioner with heat pump functionality (the refrigeration cycle is reversed in the winter). When the heat pump is enabled, the indoor evaporator coil switches roles and becomes the condenser coil, producing heat. The outdoor condensor unit also switches roles to serve as the evaporator, and produces cold air (colder than the ambient outdoor air).

At High Performance, we specialize in the installation, repair and maintenance of all heat pumps.

Tempstar Heat Pump

Quiet

The scroll compressor operates without noisy pistons and has a sound blanket to reduce compressor sound levels.

Durable

The painted, galvanized steel cabinet features a powder-coat, baked-on finish and a coated inlet grille with narrower spacing to provide maximum protection as it allows for proper airflow and easy coil cleaning.

Efficient

The scroll compressor and the copper 7 mm tubing with aluminum fin coils increase efficiency for greater energy savings.

Aerodynamic

The aerodynamic air discharge design reduces operating sound, and the two-speed fan motor operates most of the time on the quieter, lower speed.

Service Friendly

The Comfort Alert® feature improves diagnostic accuracy if the system needs checking. The Plug & Play feature simplifies wiring and makes servicing faster and easier.
