What are the benefits of air conditioning? heat pump air con

Many homes are now investing in air conditioning units so that they can enjoy a comfortable home climate all year round. Split systems are the most popular type of air to air heat pump air conditioning units which have split systems- one indoors and one outdoors so that they can provide both heating and cooling.  

The home air conditioning systems work through the outdoor unit extracting heat from the air outside before transferring it inside through the indoor unit so that it can be distributed through a fan system. The same process is used for cooling but in reverse. These systems are ideal to be installed in home offices, lounges and bedrooms where you will be spending a lot of time and want to benefit from maximum comfort. This is achieved by the air conditioning system cleaning and filtering the air in the room whilst removing dust, pollen and contaminants.  

At DG Climate Control we install room air conditioning to homes across Dumfries and Carlisle. We supply the latest energy efficient air conditioning heat pumps systems from industry leading brands such as Samsung, Mitsubishi and Toshiba.  

Before going forward with an air conditioning installation you need to make sure your home is properly insulated so that there is minimal heat loss as effective insulation can help reduce the size and cost of the heat pump. You will also need to see whether you have sufficient outdoor space for your heat pump unit to be installed as it will need proper ventilation and airflow.  

So what are the benefits of air conditioning? 

Air to air heat pumps are very energy efficient and have a seasonal efficiency rating (SCOP) of around 4.5 so generally offers over 4kW of heat while consuming around 1kW. Around 20% of the energy required to run the system comes from electricity, the other 80% is extracted from the air, making it a great renewable option. All air conditioning we install at DG Climate Control is rapid, low cost heating plus dehumidification so that you can benefit from 3 systems in 1.

Because the air conditioning provided by air to air heat pumps is energy efficient, you will in turn be saving money too. In fact, energy bills can be reduced by up to 75% compared to when you use standard electric heating.

With just one hole in the wall, air to air heat pumps can be easily installed in as little as one day. Whether you want them installed into one room, or multiple rooms in your home, your heating and cooling system will be up and running quickly. Even if you want to modify your system, it is  just as easy to add extra units when required.

They are also extremely easy to use. The units are remote controlled or via Wi-fi so that you can have complete control over temperature and the heating schedules that are set.  

Air to air home conditioning units require little to no maintenance. However it is important to have a check of the condition of your heat pump once a year. At DG Climate Control we want you to benefit from your home air conditioning as much as possible so we offer services and repairs at competitive prices to guarantee that it is working to the highest standards.
