Energy Savings

HSPF (heat pump heating)

By increasing the efficiency of new heat pump and air conditioning units being installed, we can dramatically reduce the nation's energy consumption and resultant pollution. Heat pumps also have heating efficiency ratings, indicated as an HSPF (Heating Seasonal Performance Factor).

In general, the higher the HSPF rating, the less electricity the unit will use to heat your home. Today, an HSPF of 7.5 or higher is considered "high-efficiency"; the maximum available is 10.0.
