WHAT MAKES AN ENERGY STAR® HEAT PUMP BETTER?
A correctly sized and installed ENERGY STAR heat pump is proven to work efficiently at 2°C, when some heat pumps struggle to perform and are prone to icing-up.
They offer year round performance you can rely on – ENERGY STAR heat pumps are efficient in both heating and cooling modes.
HOT TIPS FOR HEAT PUMPS
Get your insulation sorted first, your home will be easier and cheaper to heat.
Get the right size heat pump for the space you’re heating. If your heat pump is too small it will have to work harder and therefore cost you more to run.
Good installation is fundamental to how well a heat pump performs – make sure you choose an experienced installer who follows EECA’s Good Practice Guide to Heat Pump Installation.
Using your heat pump timer will help you save energy. Programme it to turn on 15 minutes before you get up in the morning or before you get home at night.
Setting the thermostat to the maximum won’t heat up your room any quicker, but it can make your heat pump run less efficiently.
ENERGY STAR® heat pumps
An ENERGY STAR heat pump is so efficient that you could save up to $250 a year*. That's equal to a couple of weeks of free heating - every winter!
So next time you're shopping for a heat pump ask for one with the blue ENERGY STAR mark.
* based on comparing a 6.45kW heat pump with 4.5 stars vs 1.5 stars on the energy rating label, heating a room with ceiling insulation, eight hours per day, six months per year at 26.23c/kWh.
