Types of Heat Pumps
There are two common types of heat pumps and they differ based on where they are extracting heat – air-source or ground-source. Air-source exchanges heat between the indoor and outdoor air of your home. A ground-source heat pump’s air exchange takes place between the indoor air of your home and the outdoor ground. A ground-source heat pump is referred to as geothermal.

We the People, Love Patriot Air
Fast & Efficient Service...
Patriot Air showed up on time, checked out my furnace, and within minutes of being there not only diagnosed the problem, but had the parts on the truck to fix it. Within thirty minutes, my furnace was blowing hot air again. Brian, the technician gave me tips on how to take better care of my furnace and even showed me how to change the air filter by myself. I couldn’t be happier and I’ve found my heating and cooling company for life. Thank you Patriot Air!
Patriot Air to the Rescue...
Our furnace went out while we were at work, and we came home to a freezing house. We have small children, so having it too cold in the house isn’t an option. We called around to a few places, and Patriot Air was the only HVAC company to return our call and immediately rushed a technician to our house. I can’t thank them enough for putting my family first and ensuring my kids had a warm home to sleep in. I tell everyone Patriot Air is the only HVAC company I’ll ever call again.
Knowledgeable & Professional...
I previously had an HVAC repair company come out to my house and attempt to repair my heat pump. They showed up late. The service technician spent most of the time on his phone, tracked mud into my house, and ultimately had no idea how to fix my problem. I called Patriot Air the next day, they showed up that same day, found and fixed the problem, and treated me and my house respectfully. I highly recommend Patriot Air for your heating and cooling needs.
Honest & Courteous...
Having a fixed income with unexpected expenses, like fixing the heating and cooling systems, is hard. Luckily for us, Patriot Air is a company that doesn’t nickel and dime you to death and is very fair-priced. They didn’t try to sell us anything we didn’t need and made sure we were comfortable with the price before they did any work. We were able to afford our repairs through their financing program. Now our central air is working wonderfully.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a heat pump include an air handler?
A heat pump consists of two main components: an indoor air handler and an outdoor unit similar to a central air conditioning unit, but referred to as a heat pump.
How does a heat pump work in the summer?
During the warmer months of the year, your heat pump is in cooling mode. At this time, the heat pump extracts warm air from indoors and releases it outside, leaving only cool air in your home.
How does a heat pump work in the winter?
Heat pumps are designed to make your home comfortable in the winter. A heat pump extracts air from the outside air or ground and sends it to the furnace where it is compressed into warm air to be circulated throughout your home. A heat pump does not create warm air but turns cold air into warmer air.
What should I do if my heat pump breaks or won’t turn on?
First verify that your system is set to the correct seasonal setting. If your heat pump still will not turn on then there may be a malfunctioning part. Call your local technician to have them take a look and schedule heat pump repair.
Can I use a smart thermostat with my heat pump?
Yes! A smart thermostat can enhance your heat pumps functionality and efficiency. We are happy to install a smart thermostat to your current system, or with a new system install.
What should I do if my heat pump is making strange noises?
If your heat pump is making funny noises you may have a loose bolt or a clogged drain. Your best option is to call your local technician to prevent a breakdown in the future and identify and fix any issues quickly.
How do I stop my heat pump from tripping the breaker?
If your head pump is tripping a breaker, turn off the heat pump immediately and call your local technician. The circuit breaker is cutting the power to prevent a disaster like an electrical fire. Some common causes are dirty air filters, clogged outside units, old compressors, or corroded connections.
What should I do if my heat pump is blowing cold air?
If it is extremely cold outside, your heat pump may not heat air to the same temperature as a gas furnace, causing air to feel cold to your skin. It is normal for your heat pump to go through defrost cycles for a couple minutes, producing colder air, if this persists then call Patriot Air.
