A ducted heat pump can deliver 1.5 to over 3 times more heat energy to a home than the electric energy it consumes. This is possible because a heat pump moves heat from the air rather than converting it from a fuel, like in combustion heating systems.This cycle can be reversed in the summer to cool your home.The mild Pacific Northwest climate provides ideal conditions for high-efficiency heat pumps.1  Save energy and money. 2  If you heat with electricity, a heat pump can reduce the amount of energy you use for heating by as much as 30%-40%.

If you answered âyesâ to any of these questions, mini-split heat pump technology could be the perfect solution to your HVAC problems. A mini-split heat pump provides forced-air heating and cooling, but without the use of ductwork.For this reason, these units are also referred to as ductless heat pumps or ductless mini-splits. Here at P&L Johnson Mechanical, Inc, we install innovative ductless heat pump systems from leading manufacturers.f you want to enjoy long-term savings on heating and air conditioning, make sure to consider installing a mini-split system. Unlike older heat pumps, the latest mini-split systems can provide efficient heat even in subfreezing temperatures.
