Heat Pumps
WHAT ARE HEAT PUMPS?
Depending on your needs, a heat pump transfers heat from the outdoors to the interior and vice versa. Your homes in Waterloo, Kitchener, and the surrounding areas will stay warm over the winter thanks to this method. A heat pump can last up to 15-20 years if it is properly maintained.
However, the environment and additional factors like leaves, ice, snow, or any other kind of waste can also affect its effectiveness and lifespan.
The following are some factors to take into account before buying a heat pump:
To install your heat pump, always contact a professional.
Watch out for heat pump incentives and rebates.
For information about its speed motors and compressor, seek professional advice.
To meet your home comfort needs, we specialize in offering effective heat pump installation services. With our extensive selection of heat pumps, you can take advantage of both dependable winter warmth and delightful summer coolness.
Infinity® 20 Heat Pump With Heat Pump 3 Greenspeed™ Intelligence 25VNA0
TAKING EFFICIENCY TO THE NEXT LEVEL WITH ADAPTABLE-SPEED TECHNOLOGY
ENERGY STAR® Most Efficient 2014 qualified in all sizes
Optimal summer dehumidification
Variable-speed compressor
The Infinity series heat pump with Greenspeed intelligence is the first of its kind. No other ducted, air source heat pump can beat its 13 HSPF rating for heating efficiency. It’s a winner too, when it comes to cooling. But perhaps the biggest story is what it can do for your home comfort. Greenspeed intelligence is created by pairing adaptable-speed technology with our Infinity control’s intelligence.
The unique, variable-speed compressor of this unit, when managed by the Infinity control as part of a complete Infinity system, allows it to literally adapt its output to the needs of the home. With infinite adjustments between 40 and 100% capacity, it gives the home only the amount of cooling or heating necessary. This allows the system to operate longer at steadier, lower capacities, which ensures incredible energy efficiency and quiet operation with tighter temperature control than standard systems.
INFINITY 19 25HNB9 HEAT PUMP
The pinnacle of Carrier® engineering, our Infinity series heat pump with Greenspeed intelligence offers precise heating and cooling, unwavering comfort, uncompromising energy efficiency and ultra-Heat Pump 3 quiet cooling performance. No wonder this system earned the ENERGY STAR® Most Efficient 2012 qualification. What’s more, all Infinity heat pumps can be part of our revolutionary Hybrid Heat® dual fuel system, which saves you money year-round.

Infinity® 18VS Heat Pump25VNA8
The Infinity 18VS heat pump is different in a lot of ways. It offers variable-speed compression that can step down in 5 stages to as low Heat-Pump4as 25% of its capacity. That’s huge from a comfort perspective. The ability to run in lower speeds most of the time makes it quieter and more adept at removing humidity in the summer.
It’s also significantly better than a 2-stage unit at keeping temperatures even. Plus, those lower speeds are the sweet spot for the unit’s best efficiency levels and for getting the most benefit out of other systems you might have like an air purifier because of more constant air flow through the system.
And, it’s seldom you can upgrade your system a component at a time. Most often, the leap to higher efficiency and better comfort via a Heat-Pump 6 communicating system for that home you love, can mean you have to deal with the cost of a whole system even though only your outdoor cooling unit has called it quits. The Infinity 18VS could change that for you. Your Carrier®expert can help you determine if it can work with your existing indoor unit so you can upgrade in steps.

How The Heat Pump System Works
Heat pump units require being hooked up to your home’s furnace. Although we think exclusively about the heat when it comes to our furnaces, we often forget that home air circulation is a big part of the furnace’s job.
Heat pumps, unlike furnaces, produce chilly or warm indoor air using electricity rather than a gas flame to produce heat. It also means that using a heat pump throughout the colder fall and spring months will result in decreased utility costs, giving your gas furnace a rest.
When we hook a heat pump unit to your furnace, we add an evaporator coil unit to the existing furnace system above the furnace fan. This allows the furnace fan to blow cool air throughout our homes thanks to the refrigerant that runs through the copper pipes of the evaporator coil unit in added within our furnaces.
