Heat pumps have gained popularity around USA and Canada for over 50 years. There are hot spots in North America for heat pump installations like Nova Scotia, Vermont, Maine and New York. You can take advantage of the Efficiency Maine Home Saving Program for the installation of heat pumps in Maine.

Under this program, homeowners looking to install an air source heat pump are eligible for $500 and $250 and for a second zone up to $750. This energy savings program is only for the installation of ductless heat pumps. Therefore, homeowners are required to install hydronic fan coils to get benefited from cold weather heat pumps in Maine.

Over 45,000 high efficiency ductless heat pumps are installed in the homes and businesses in Maine over the past five years. Heat pumps are used for cooling during warm climates and one of the most popular technologies for heating in cold climates. Efficiency Maine provides rebates ductless heat pumps for residential and commercial purposes.

Generally, Arctic Heat Pump uses the industry-standard collector – SunRain solar vacuum tube collector which can provide hot water to the system even in the coldest North American winter. These collectors come with a 10 year warranty and are considered as the top-rated technology in North American solar industry.

However, the higher efficiency of solar vacuum tubes allows the system to produce sufficient energy during cloudy days. The

Do you want a heat pump in cold weather? Out of all the available models, Arctic cold climate heat pumps stand out the most advanced and affordable air source heat pump on the market. They are capable of heating your home, office, shop and pool or hot tub.

The hot pumps use the industry-standard EVI (Enhanced Vapor Injection) compressors with DC variable speed input. This is why they operate consistently in weather as low as -30 C (-22F). The hot pump is of air to water type and has so many features. Here are some of the best features discussed below:

Energy Savings –

The Arctic cold climate heat pump comes with EVI DC inverter compressors, brushless DC fan motors and PFC control so that it is more precise enough to regulate its power output. The system doesn’t need any starting capacitor and the entire unit can start and stop softly as possible.

In warmer climate conditions, regulating the swimming pool temperature from getting too hot can be a hassle. If the water temperature remains above 30C or 86F, it can be problematic. 

1. First of all, the warm temperature is good for algae and other bacteria growth. 

2. Secondly, the chlorine gas dissipates quickly with warm water and needs a stronger dose. More use of Chlorine results in uncomfortable irritation of skin and eyes. If you leave the pool untreated in warm weather, it will turn into a green mess within no time. Considering a rule of thumb for every 10 degrees F over 80 F, you will need two times more chlorine. 

If this is the case, your solution is the Arctic Pool & Spa Heat Pumps – the Hybrid Heaters that can heat as well as chill the water. It has an automatic temperature function so that you can set the temperature. This means you can maintain the temperature by either cooling if the water exceeds the set point or heating if the water goes down the set point.

However, a

Are you looking for renewable heating options? Then you can consider using air source heat pumps that are one of the best renewable energy options. If you want to reduce the high energy bills for the gas or electric heating system, then switching to an air source heat pump will prove to be worth.

Heat Pumps:

It can be said that a heat pump is used to pump or move heat from one place to another by using a compressor and a circulating structure (of liquid/gas refrigerant). This helps in extracting the heat from outside sources and pumps it inside the building. Powered with renewable energy technology, the heat pumps are one of the most efficient alternative to electric systems, oil and fuel for your heating and cooling solutions.

Air Source Heat Pumps For Cold Climates:

Normally the air source heat pump for cold climate works by transferring the heat (absorbed from the outside air) to the indoor space like your home or office via a durable wet central heating system. This helps in heating

Most homeowners are well-acquainted with the benefits of radiant floor heating and don’t have any idea of radiant floor cooling. It can be a cost effective way for those building a home with hydronic heat.

Radiant cooling system is quiet, dust-free, and efficient and has been used in Europe for decades. According to the studies by Lawrence Berkley National Laboratory in California estimate the energy saving of radiant floor cooling that is over 30% than traditional air cooling.

Using of TS510 Dew Point Sensor

The main myth is that you can’t cool the slab as it will condensate and result in a wet floor. It’s true if there’s not a proper controller in place. If you incorporate a dew point switch like the REESOL TS510 that integrates with MX controller, you can avoid the chance of moisture on the floors ensuring cooling.

In fact, cooling only needs floor temperature of 10 degree difference to make a great impact on the cooling temperature indoors. An average building that runs 66-68F chilled

Heat pumps have been around in Canada and in the USA for over 50 years. But what made their popularity grown so much in the last 10 years? Nova Scotia, Maine, Vermont, New Brunswick, New York seem to the hot spots in North America for heat pump installations.

Perhaps the heat pumps combine a perfect climate and higher than average energy cost? Or perhaps the installers and contractors feel confident that heat pumps in Nova Scotia are better than any other type of heating option?

When a recent heat pump customer in Maine was asked about why he bought a cold weather heat pump, his answer was because the neighbor purchased one of the heat pumps last year. Perhaps it’s the “Jones” effect that people are buying cold weather heat pumps in North Eastern USA more than anywhere else simply because that their neighbors are buying them and it has reached a critical mass?

Under the Efficiency Maine Home Energy saving programs, homeowners installing an air source heat pump are eligible for $500 plus
