A dual fuel heating system is an electric heat pump added
to a fossil fuel furnace. Sometimes it is called an Add-on
Heat Pump (AOHP). A heat pump is an air conditioner in the
summer and in
the winter it works in conjunction with your furnace to
reduce your heating costs.
Today’s heat pumps work efficiently at all outdoor temperatures, but they are extremely energy efficient when they operate in the temperatures from 20 to 60 degrees. In this temperature range a new heat pump can generate heat at a very low cost.
When added to a gas or oil furnace, the heat pump is able to provide 60% to 70% of your total winter heat. The furnace is still used in the colder winter temperatures and will supply all the remaining heat.
Let us show you how we can save you money by taking advantage of these systems.
