  • Summary

  • This podcast compares heat pumps and air conditioners, analysing their energy efficiency, climate suitability, and cost-effectiveness. Heat pumps offer year-round heating and cooling, boasting higher energy efficiency and lower long-term costs but higher initial installation expenses and potential need for supplemental heating in very cold climates. Air conditioners are cheaper upfront, ideal for cooling in hot climates, but lack heating capabilities and are less energy-efficient overall. The best choice depends on factors such as climate, electricity prices, and budget, with professional advice recommended for optimal decision-making. Both systems typically last 10-15 years with regular maintenance.
