Choosing a Good Heat Pump for Your Business

Whether you plan to start up a new business or renovate your current office or store, you’ll need to take proper HVAC installation and/or upgrades into consideration. Quality heating and cooling guarantees clean air and comfortable temperatures for your staff and customers, and the proper equipment can also help you save money in the long run. When it comes to the overall health of your staff, a good heat pump can make a difference in productivity. You just have to find the right one to suit you.

If you do not have a regular contractor on call, you should consult with colleagues in your business area for recommendations. A reputable HVAC company that specializes in installation and repair of heat pumps can help you find the right model for your office or retail space and get it working during business hours. Some properties you’ll want to look for in a good commercial heat pump include:

  • Conditional parts warranty
  • Limited compressor warranty
  • Electric heating elements warranty

These warranties may be good for one to five years, depending on the provider. As you discuss possible models for your space, you may hear a contractor mention a SEER number. This stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Rating and lets you know the rate of dependability of the equipment. The higher the rating, the better the efficiency of the model.

Another question you may be asked is whether you require a packaged heat pump or a split system. Where the packaged heat pump has all components for heating and cooling in one cabinet, the split system model is two units – one indoors and one outdoors. A good contractor can confer with you about which system is best suited to your property.

As you discuss possible units for heating and cooling, as about Energy Star rated products. The Energy Star designation, set up by the EPA, is given to products that are confirmed to help conserve energy. There is also the chance your utility bills could decrease with usage. These days, it’s important to watch every dollar, especially since you need to pay employees and manage other expenses.

No matter the scope of your business, clean air and a healthy environment are two important components that help maintain high productivity and customer satisfaction. When you create a comfortable environment for employees and customers, you develop the foundation for a successful business. Connect with a local HVAC contractor about your options.
