What range of temperatures can a heat pump handle?

For many years Pacific Rim Heat Pumps Inc. has dedicated themselves to delivering comfort to Port Alberni, Parksville, and Nanaimo homes by installing highly efficient ductless heat pumps. It’s important to know however that our team does not just install any product, we only install the best, which is why we only install Mitsubishi Heat Pumps. Mitsubishi is a leader in the heat pump world, manufacturing some of the very best. These machines can make all parts of your home a comfortable temperature all day long, year-round. But what range of temperatures can a machine like this handle?

The Mitsubishi Mr Slim heat pumps that we install are able to warm your home in temperatures as low as -15°C and -25°C (depending on the model you choose) and cool your home all the way up to 50°C!

Heat Pumps regulate indoor temperature by drawing in any warmth from the exterior cold air during winter, and by extracting excess higher temperature atmosphere from your home during summer. Now, it is a widespread belief that these devices stop pumping warm air during times of very low temperatures, but as you can see, that’s simply not true! On Vancouver Island, our mild weather typically stays within the optimal range, however, it does get cold and many homes lack the insulation to keep the heat in. So the Mitsubishi heat pump is ideal because it still warms your home during the coldest temperatures we feel on Vancouver Island. With Mitsubishi systems, most backup systems end up being turned off!

Several homes within and around Vancouver Island currently enjoy Mitsubishi's ductless, noiseless, easy-to-use, energy-saving, and cost-effective heat pumps. It’s your turn to have a great experience too! We are always ready and available for installations.

Why Heat Pumps?

Heat pumps have a plethora of advantages over most other heating and cooling systems. First off, they work far more cost efficiently than standard air conditioners and other cooling systems in sweltering and humid conditions. Secondly, compared to a furnace, our ductless heat pumps are far more environmentally friendly as they emit no carbon monoxide or any other toxin to the atmosphere.

Ductless heat pumps also have a cost advantage over ducted heating systems. Installation is inexpensive, and your monthly heating bills will decrease. With no freezing cold metal ducting for the air to travel through, there is no drop in the warm air’s temperature before it arrives in the room you’re warming up. That means less work needs to be done by the unit! Less time running plus warmer air means less electricity used.
