How A Ductless Heat Pump Works
First, let’s understand how a cold climate ductless heat pump works. In short, a cold climate ductless heat pump operates by using a refrigerant to absorb heat from the outdoor air and transfer it to the indoor units without the need for ductwork. The refrigerant is compressed, elevating its temperature. Then, it travels towards the indoor unit through a small conduit, where the evaporator distributes hot air throughout your home for you and your family.

Best Situations To Use A Ductless Heat Pump System

Hot and Cold Spots
Some areas of your home will naturally be at a higher or lower temperature in comparison to the rest of your space. This could be due to where the room is located such as; above a garage, certain geographical exposure, southern facing rooms. Or, it could simply be due to lack of insulation. A ductless Carrier heat pump is a great solution to combat hot and cold spots.
