If mxhing else changed much when you had the heat pump install ed. then M may he working less e f f i ciently than it could A common cause o f p>«»r performance is that the more expensive electric resistance backup heat that was installed with the heat pump is on more than it should he One reason might he the thermostat Check with the contrac tor who installed (he heal pump to see if there is an outside thermostat This locks the electrical resistance backup o f f until the ou tside temperature falls below the point where the heat pump can no longer heat your home by itself Another possibility is that (he heat pump may have been st/ed to fit your existing ductwork Because heat pumps require larger ducts than combustion furnaces, a heat pump sized to existing ductwork may be undersized for your home The backup heat (about twice as expen sive) is therefore on more often f ind a healing contractor with heat pump experience to l»x»k at your system It's also a gixxi idea to check references ( Hegon State University Hxtcnsion energy agents and specialists will answer energy questions o f interest to readers Send your questions to Energy Answers.
