Air source heat pumps work like your refrigerator but instead of cooling, they heat. The heat pump pulls the heat from the outside air with its fan, the air then reacts with a liquid refrigerant, which changes state to a gas as it boils. The gas is compressed which dramatically increases the temperature and is used to heat your water system. Air source heat pumps are still effective even in cold temperatures, guaranteeing you a nice, toasty home all year round.
