Description
The Cold
Climate Heat Pump (CCHP) is the latest development in efficient air source heat
pump design. Thanks to the inverter or variable speed drive compressor design,
these heat pumps achieve high efficiency even in winter.
CCHP
operates at nearly 400% efficiency at 47°F or higher. When the temperature
drops to zero, the CCHP will maintain about 200% efficiency. This means that
CCHP provides two to four units of thermal energy for every unit of energy
consumed. CCHPs are highly efficient, capable of providing up to 90% of space
heating needs with an overall seasonal efficiency of 250%.
Just
like other heat pumps, CCHP doubles as a cooling system in summer.
A CCHP
differs from a standard air source heat pump in that:
Has a high
heating seasonal performance factor (HSPF). To get our rebate, look for an HSPF
of 9 or higher in ducted systems and 10 or higher in ductless mini-split
systems.
Equipped
with variable capacity compressors, this gives them incredible efficiency.
A crossover
set point of approximately 0°F is installed to ensure heating season operation.
