Heat Pump VS A Furnace For Heating Your Home

Heat Pump VS A Furnace For Heating Your Home

Heat Pump VS A Furnace For Heating Your Home

In our area of Southwest Virginia, heating systems are an integral part of the home. They keep your home warm and comfortable, and also have a direct impact on your energy bills for half of the year. Deciding what kind of HVAC system you are going to choose to heat your home is important. In our area, heat pumps and furnaces are two of the most popular heating systems for home and businesses. 

We’ve been working in the area for 15+ years, installing furnaces and heat pumps alike. We know not every home is the same, and each one has its own unique needs. In this article, we’re going to talk about the difference between using a furnace to heat your home and a heat pump. 

If you think your home is due for a comfort upgrade, be it heating or cooling, give us a call at (276) 690-9222, or contact us online. Our experts would be happy to help you out with your home comfort needs! 

How A Heat Pump Works VS How A Furnace Works

As we said, in our area of Virginia, both heat pumps and furnaces are both very popular. They are both reliable systems that can keep a home comfortable in our climate. It gets cold here, but it’s not the arctic, and both systems are suited to handle the cold we experience. 

Here is how each system works: 

How A Furnace Works

A furnace generates heat by burning fuel (most commonly natural gas or propane) or by using electricity. More commonly, we see fuel burning furnaces. Once heat is created, a blower fan pushes that warm air through your ductwork and into each room of your home. We have a lot of gas and oil burning furnaces in our area of Virginia and Tennessee. 

Key points about furnaces:

  • Produce heat directly
  • Typically run on natural gas, propane, oil, or electricity
  • Can deliver very hot air quickly

Furnaces are especially effective during very cold weather because their heat output does not depend on outdoor temperatures, like a heat pump does. These systems generate their own heat, which can be a benefit, and also a drawback in some cases. More on that later. Still, this ability to generate heat independently makes for quick, dependable heating.

How A Heat Pump Works 

A heat pump works differently than a furnace. Instead of creating heat, a heat pump moves heat. Even when it’s cold outside, there is still heat energy in the air. A heat pump pulls that heat from outside and transfers it indoors. In the summer, the process reverses, allowing the system to cool your home.

Key points about heat pumps:

  • Transfer heat instead of generating it
  • Run primarily on electricity
  • Provide both heating and cooling
  • Extremely energy efficient in mild to moderate climates

Modern cold-climate heat pumps are well-suited for Southwest Virginia and can operate efficiently even when outdoor temperatures drop into the teens. In the past, heat pumps had a hard time handling frigid temperatures, and wouldn’t be able to produce enough heat to keep certain climates comfortable. Today, the advanced heat pump technology accommodates weather like the kind we see here in Virginia and Tennessee. 

The Benefits Of A Furnace 

Furnaces have been a trusted heating solution for decades, and for good reason. The fact that these systems don’t depend on sourcing heat from the cold outside gives them a quicker ability to heat, and when the temps really drop, this dependable heating may be a comfort compared to heat pumps. 

Benefits include:

  • Strong, consistent heat during cold snaps
  • Long lifespan with proper maintenance
  • Ideal for homes with natural gas access
  • Familiar technology many homeowners are comfortable with

If you want powerful heat that feels warm right away—especially during the coldest winter nights—a furnace can be a great choice.

Drawbacks Of A Furnace

A furnace is dependable, but not always perfect. Here are some of the cons to using a furnace: 

  • Produces dangerous harmful gases 
  • Can only heat, not cool 
  • Depend on gas/oil prices for your heating bills
  • Less environmentally friendly
  • Not normally as energy efficient as a heat pump

Benefits Of A Heat Pump

Heat pumps have become increasingly popular as technology has improved and energy costs have changed. In fact, many energy providers, heat pump manufacturers, and even government programs will provide financial incentives when you install a heat pump for your home. 

Benefits include:

  • Lower monthly energy costs for many homes
  • One system for heating and cooling
  • High efficiency and lower environmental impact
  • Eligible for utility rebates and federal tax credits
  • Great option for homes without gas service
  • Ductless heat pumps great for homes with no ductwork

For homeowners looking to reduce energy usage and future-proof their home, heat pumps are often an excellent investment. These systems are environmentally friendly, and energy efficient. They’ve become the preferred choice to install for our team here at Complete Comfort in the past 5 years.

Which System Is Best For Your Home?

Every home is unique, and not every system may be perfect for every home. The best heating system depends on several factors:

  • Your home’s size and insulation
  • Whether natural gas is available
  • Your comfort preferences
  • Energy costs in your area
  • Budget and long-term goals

In many cases, we recommend a heat pump. The energy savings and flexibility to provide both heating and cooling are huge benefits that most of our customers prefer. We also install dual-fuel systems, which pair a heat pump with a furnace—giving you efficiency during mild weather and powerful heat when temperatures drop.

We’ve been serving Southwest Virginia for over 15 years, and we are starting to work in Northeastern Tennessee as well. We know that no two homes are the same, and make sure that our customers are taken care of individually. If you’re considering upgrading your heating system or replacing an older unit, we’d be happy to help you explore your options.

Ways To Fix A Cold Room In Your Home

Ways To Fix A Cold Room In Your Home

Ways To Fix A Cold Room In Your HomeDuring the coldest months of the year, like we are experiencing right now, there can be challenges keeping every space in a home comfortable. Maybe it’s a single space, or an entire floor in your home. For homes and businesses in our area of Smyth County, Abingdon, Bristol, etc., we can see some brutal weather. It’s not unusual to have a room or a space that never seems to stay comfortable. 

I’ve been working in the area since 2011, installing HVAC equipment and making sure that our customers are comfortable no matter what the weather is like. In that time, we’ve helped solve all sorts of comfort problems. From a bedroom that never stays warm, to a living room that always holds a chill. The point is, not every home is the same, and even though there are some common reasons a room may be chilly, every situation is unique. 

In this article, we’ll go over some common reasons you may have cold spots in your home, and the best ways to solve them. If your home is chilly and you don’t know why, give us a call at (276) 690-9222, or contact us online. Our experts can diagnose your problem and let you know the best path to solving it!

Most Common Reasons You Have Cold Spots In Your Home

Cold spots aren’t uncommon, especially when it drops to very frigid temperatures. Luckily, there is almost always a solution to fix the space, making it warm and cozy! Here are some of the most common reasons you may have cold spots around your home: 

Poor Airflow

If you have an HVAC system that is keeping your home warm, but there are a few spaces that don’t seem to heat up, poor airflow is usually a culprit. 

Your Filter Can Become Clogged And ProblematicIf you have a vented system like a furnace that uses ductwork, which is most common in our area, then there could be an issue with that heated air getting to every space in the home. With a system like this one, your furnace produces heat, and then it’s pushed through your vents. Most commonly, bedrooms and spaces that are furthest away from the furnace have been the problem areas. 

If you are experiencing poor airflow, there are a few things you can check. First off, put your hands over the grate or vent that is located in the cold room. If you notice there is no air coming out, or very little, it could mean there are problems with your airflow. 

If you suspect airflow issues, check your filter. Sometimes a clogged air filter is the problem, causing air to back up in the system and not being pushed to every space in the home. If you change the filter and there is still no air coming out the way it should, call a professional. They will be able to assess the problem and present you with the solution. You could have leaking or improperly installed ductwork. You may also have issues with the furnace. There could be a problem with the fan, blower motor, or heating elements. 

A professional will be able to help you out, and likely fix the problem! 

Poor Insulation 

Now, suppose you have a cold room, but the air from the furnace seems to be pumping out just fine. You put your hands over the vent in the cold room, and hot air is coming out just fine. Now you know the furnace and ductwork aren’t the issue. In this case, your room may be poorly insulated. 

Suppose you have a room over a garage, or with some old, leaky windows. These are rooms that may have trouble retaining heat. For these rooms, you can seal the windows or even install double-pane windows that do a better job of insulating the room from the weather. You can also talk to a professional about adding some insulation to the room. This could help you keep the space more comfortable, and also save money by not wasting energy heating a room that never stays warm. 

Heating System Issues 

If you have an older heating system, be it a furnace, heat pump, or boiler, it can run into performance problems. As these systems age, they can lose efficiency, and begin to perform worse than when they were first installed. This can manifest in breakdowns, higher energy bills than needed, or cold spots around the house. 

The best way to avoid this issue is to schedule routine maintenance. If your heating system is looked at regularly, inspected, and serviced by a professional, they will be able to keep your system running smoothly and efficiently. It will help you avoid major problems, reduce the likelihood of a breakdown, and improve the quality of the air in your home. 

If the system is serviced and still not making the place comfortable, it may just be time to consider a replacement. Upgrading to a new heating system will improve comfort, reduce energy costs, and give you a new HVAC system for at least a decade, and hopefully more with regular maintenance

How To Fix A Cold Space In Your Home

We’ve already gone over a few ways to fix these cold spots, but we are going to outline a few here once again: 

  • Change your air filter 
  • Schedule routine HVAC maintenance
  • Ensure vents aren’t blocked by furniture 
  • Seal leaks around the windows and doors 
  • Call a professional to check on vents/heating system
  • Add insulation to your walls 

You can also take further steps like adding energy-efficient double-pane windows and doors to your home as well, but those projects can become expensive. 

Adding Supplemental Heating To Your Home

Another solution is to add supplemental heating, be it a space heater or a ductless mini split. We are big fans of ductless mini splits. These units can provide both heating and cooling, and do so quietly and efficiently. We’ve installed hundreds of mini splits over the years, and we understand why people love them so much! 

Supplemental heating is good when you don’t want to replace your heating system, but you want to take care of this problem area without stressing your current HVAC system too hard.

Tips To Staying Warm At Home During The Polar Vortex

Tips For Staying Warm At Home During The Polar Vortex

Tips For Staying Warm At Home During The Polar Vortex

Tips To Staying Warm And Saving Energy

During a cold spell like a polar vortex, you are going to want to make sure your home is ready for these frigid temperatures. Here are some tips that will help you keep your home comfortable, and also stay energy efficient. 

Ensure Your Vents Aren’t Blocked

Make sure all the vents in your home are clear and not blocked by furniture, curtains, or laundry. It’s easy to overlook a vent and maybe move a couch or a desk in front of it when rearranging furniture. If your vents are blocked, it could stop the flow of the air, and prevent the space from staying warm. It can also back up air into your heating system and stop it from working properly. 

Turn Your Fans To Clockwise

Turning your fans to clockwise and running them at a low speed will create an updraft, and push warm air that builds up by the ceiling down into the living space. Make sure the fan isn’t running too fast, or it will create too much of a draft and make the space cold. 

Seal Any Drafts And Leaks Around The Home

Make sure your home isn’t leaking air by sealing cracks around windows and doors. You can use weatherstripping, caulk, and door draft blockers that won’t cost a lot of money, but could make a big difference when it comes to your home comfort and energy bills. Check around the house and make sure your windows are closed tight, and don’t have any spaces that could be leaking air. Feel under doorways to see if there’s a draft from outside. 

It also helps to keep curtains drawn and add another layer of “insulation” that prevents the windows from making your space cooler. Windows, even when sealed and shut, can still be sources of energy loss. 

Bonus Tip: If you have old windows, they could be thin and may be a major source of energy loss. If you were thinking of improving your home, upgrading to energy efficient windows and doors could end up saving you in energy costs in the long run. 

Check On Insulation 

Your insulation is generally in your walls and attic, and it keeps your space protected from the outside elements. Just like sealing windows and doors prevents warm air from leaking out of your home, insulation will keep your home protected from the weather outside. 

If a home has poor or failing insulation, it could mean spaces around your home are going to suffer. These spaces are going to get cold easily, and make your heating system work harder. If you think you need some help with your insulation, call a professional to add or improve the insulation in your home. 

Wearing Slippers, Robes, And Using Blankets

This is basic, but wearing warm clothes, slippers, and having blankets spread around the house are going to make you more comfortable. It’s going to help you stay warm without having to turn up the heat too much. Not only is this cozy, but it saves you money from running up your heating bill. 

Schedule Routine Heating Service

We Work With All Different HVAC SystemsYou should have your heating system serviced at least once a year. Whether you have a furnace, a boiler, or a heat pump, routine maintenance is the best thing you can do to get the most out of your system. 

During routine maintenance, an HVAC technician will perform a series of tasks that provide your system with a few benefits. 

  • Improved energy efficiency
  • Cleaner indoor air
  • Improved heating
  • Lower energy bills
  • Longer system lifespan 
  • Fewer breakdowns 
  • Ensures safe operation
  • Maintains warranty 

There are lots of different reasons you should have your heating system serviced, but the bottom line is that it’s going to improve your comfort, save money in a few ways, and ensure the system is running safely. 

Whether there is a polar vortex or not, having your heating system serviced at least once a year is the best thing you can do for your HVAC unit.

Why A Ductless Mini Split Is Perfect For Fall

Why A Ductless Mini Split Is Perfect For Fall

Why A Ductless Mini Split Is Perfect For FallWith Labor Day behind us, it’s time to start thinking about the next season. Labor Day is the unofficial end of Summer, even if we technically have a few more weeks. During this time period and into the fall, it’s not unusual to have days when you can use a little cooling, and nights when you want some heating. This is why we want to tell you a little more about ductless mini splits, a perfect solution to keep your space comfortable in the fall, as well as the rest of the year

We’ve been installing ductless mini splits around Southwest Virginia, and Northeastern Tennessee for about 15 years now, and our customers who use them all rave about them. From Marion and Glade Spring, and all over Smyth County, we are seeing homes and businesses that are perfect candidates for this style of heating and cooling system. They’re energy efficient, whisper quiet, and provide superior comfort compared to most heating and cooling systems. 

In this article, I’ll tell you a little more about the benefits of ductless mini splits, and why they are perfect for shoulder seasons like the fall and spring. This is a year round solution that can provide both heating and cooling, and do so efficiently. If you’d like to schedule a free consultation, give us a call at (276) 690-9222, or contact us online! One of our experts would be happy to answer any questions you may have, and set you up with a free mini split consultation. 

Why Is A Ductless Mini Split Great For Fall and Spring? 

During the fall and the spring, you may have days that could use a little air conditioning, and some nights that could use some heat. In the past, people have just used space heaters, window air conditioners, or they’ve dealt with being slightly uncomfortable in order to avoid turning on their HVAC systems just for a brief bit of use. Luckily, now we have systems and technology that make it simple to stay comfortable without wasting energy

Here are a few of the highlights and reasons we think ductless mini splits are perfect for fall: 

Ductless Mini Splits Provide Heating And Cooling

Ductless mini splits can provide both heating and cooling, unlike a lot of other HVAC solutions. If you are using window AC units, they’re only good for cooling. If you use a space heater, it can only produce heat. Instead, a ductless mini split can provide both, and do so more efficiently. 

Instead of using systems that you have to install every season, then put back away when you are finished with them, these mini splits are permanently installed, and can be used all year round. 

This is also perfect for these shoulder seasons because it allows you to use heating in one moment, and then cooling in the next. It doesn’t take a long time for the system to switch over, or ramp up, you simply put in the temperature you desire and it gets the room there quickly. 

Ductless Mini Splits Use Variable Speed Technology

In the past, HVAC systems weren’t sophisticated enough to run at multiple speeds. It was either on or off. Now, heat pumps, mini splits, and other HVAC systems are built with variable speed technology, giving your HVAC system the capability to provide more precise temperatures and also save energy. 

If you were using a traditional single-speed system, it would get the room to the temperature you are looking for, and then turn off. Then, the temperature would slowly creep higher or lower, and then the system would kick back on. In the process, there’s a lot of fluctuation with temperatures, and it can be pretty uncomfortable. It also wastes energy running at full speed off and on all day. 

This variable speed system allows for more precise temperatures, no fluctuations, and saves energy, keeping the bills lower than with a traditional system. 

Ductless Mini Splits Provide Zoned HVAC 

One of our favorite aspects of a ductless mini split system is the zoning capabilities. This means you can run each ductless mini split unit independently of each other. Instead of setting the home’s thermostat to a certain temperature, and the whole home gets to that temperature, these mini splits can provide a different temperature for each zone. Suppose you have a mini split in your bedroom, and another in your home office. You can keep the one if your bedroom off while you work, and then once the home office is done being used, turn that one off, or run it at a lower setting. 

This zoning does a few things: 

  • Allows you to save energy
  • Provides more precise comfort around the house 
  • Allows for different occupants to enjoy different temperatures (no more fighting over the thermostat)

Ductless VS Window AC Units

Ductless Mini Splits Can Be Used All Year

Just like we said earlier, ductless mini splits can provide both heating and cooling, so they can be used all year round. But, what we didn’t mention is that these systems can also replace your current HVAC system, and provide heating during the colded winter months, and cooling during the hottest summer months.

We’ve seen these systems used as supplements for a current HVAC system if the homeowner wanted a little extra comfort, or they wanted to outfit an addition to their home with HVAC. We’ve also seen these system installed all around a home, replacing the current HVAC system completely. The point is, these systems are perfect for any time of the year, and are flexible. If you only need one to help out your current furnace or air conditioner, that’s perfect. If you want to install these all around the house and get rid of an old HVAC system, that works just fine too! 

Installing A New Ductless Mini Split System For Your Home Or Business

Whether you are in need of a whole home solution to replace your current heating and cooling system, or you simply want to install a single mini split, we can help. Our team has worked all around Southwest Virigina and Northeastern Tennessee. From Wytheville to Smyth County, we have been helping homeowners and businesses with their heating, cooling, and generator needs.

How To Make Your Home More Comfortable In Cold Weather

To keep your home comfortable, there are a number of tasks you can accomplish on your own, as well as some things you can hire a professional to take care of. It’s important to remember that if you feel uncomfortable with any of this, call in a professional to help you out.

Use Throw Blankets, Slippers, and Area Rugs

Using throw blankets, slippers, and area rugs are simple, but effective ways to stay comfortable once it starts to get cold out. Instead of cranking up the heat to an uncomfortable level, using these items will help you stay comfortable and cozy in your home. Keeping your feet off the floor by using area rugs and slippers goes a long way, just like having a few blankets to cover up when you are watching TV. 

Once again, this is something you generally do on your own, and as long as you don’t need to go out and purchase all this at once, it’s not a very expensive task. 

Turn Your Ceiling Fan To Clockwise

A Ceiling Fan Can Also Help Warm Your SpaceMost of the time your ceiling fan is used to cool you off in the warmer months. What a lot of people don’t realize is that your fan can also be used to keep your place warm as well. If you turn the fan clockwise, it creates a downdraft that will push the warm air that rises in your home back down into the living space. The key is to have the fan on a low speed so it gently pushes the warm air down. If the fan is moving too fast, it can make the air cool. 

To change the direction of your fan, you should be able to flip a little switch located by the base of your ceiling fan. 

Check Your Insulation/Seal Windows And Doors

Sealing leaks and cracks in your windows and doors goes a long way to keeping your home more comfortable and warmer. It also really helps save energy and maintain lower utility bills. This can be a tougher task, and one that requires some handy work, or potentially hiring a professional. 

If you want to have your insulation improved, calling in a professional may be the right choice. They can inspect the insulation in your ceiling, and areas that are easier to improve. You can probably seal cracks and leaks in the windows and doors a bit easier. You can use a sealant that eliminates little drafts and air escaping through your windows. You can also use weather stripping or door draft blockers to eliminate the draft from the door as well. 

If you live in a home with older windows and doors, it may be a good idea to invest in newer, energy efficient ones. Single pane windows can be a huge source of energy loss. You probably notice the chill coming from the window when it’s very cold out. It can be a pricey investment installing new windows and doors, but one that eventually pays itself off with saving on your energy bills. 

Schedule Heating System Service

Your heating system should be serviced at least once a year. This leads to: 

  • Improved Energy Efficiency
  • Smoother Operation
  • Lower Energy Bills
  • Improved Heating/Comfort
  • Longer System Lifespan
  • Maintains Warranty
  • Improved Indoor Air Quality

There are more benefits to heating service than you sometimes realize. We recommend you have your furnace or heat pump serviced at least once a year. This will ensure its smooth operation, and improve your home comfort for winters to come.

Bonus Tip: Use Sunlight To Heat Your Home

Ok here’s one more little tip to keeping your home warm. Open your blinds to allow sunlight in your home during the day. It’s a natural way to keep your home warmer without cranking up the heat. If you have rooms that don’t get direct sunlight, leave the blinds closed and pulled all the way down. It can serve as a small layer of insulation.

Can I Trust AI To Answer Questions About My Heating System

Can I Trust AI To Answer Questions About My Heating System?

Can I Trust AI To Answer Questions About My Heating SystemAI is all over the place, and we know it’s only getting bigger and bigger. Here at Complete Comfort, we also know that you have questions about your HVAC equipment, and you may not always want to pick up the phone and call a contractor. Many people use Google to ask questions about their heating equipment, and now we are hearing about people using AI to answer questions about their home comfort. 

So can you depend on AI to answer questions about your heating system? No, you can’t COMPLETELY trust AI to answer questions about your heating system. There are certainly instances where AI will give you the right answer, but not all the time. And when it comes to something like your heating system, which can be dangerous if it isn’t working properly, you don’t want to take a risk. 

When To Ask AI Questions About Your Heating System

There are certainly times where you can ask AI questions. Maybe about how the system operates, or the energy it consumes. AI can be useful and provide you with information that may be tougher to find in an owner’s manual or an online guide that explains your equipment. 

Especially now that AI tools like ChatGPT can now surf the internet themselves to find answers, there can certainly be some useful information AI can provide you with to help you learn more about your heating system. But it’s not a perfect solution. 

There have been many instances of AI providing false or inaccurate information. In lots of cases it’s very helpful and provides accurate information, but it’s not full proof. This is why even though you can learn a thing or two about your heating through AI, we still trust a live, professional technician over everything else. 

When To Ask A Professional About Your Heating System

Asking A Professional About Your Heating System Is HelpfulAs much fun and as convenient as asking AI about your HVAC system may be, there are times when you need to speak to a professional. The most important time to speak to a professional is when there is a problem with your heating system. 

Of course you can Google or ChatGPT what MAY be wrong with your system, but that’s not a sufficient substitute for a real diagnosis from a human. Your heating system can be a dangerous piece of equipment without proper care and operation, so we also don’t recommend you try and fix it on your own. 

If you are having problems with your heating system, call a professional to take a look. If you want to also do some of your own research, feel free, but you’ll still need the HVAC technician to look at your system and fix the problem.
