The average temperature in Tuscaloosa swings from the mid thirties into the upper nineties… While it sometimes soars into the triple digits, conditions rarely drop below chilly.
When I bought a house in Tuscaloosa, it was already equipped with a furnace and central air conditioning system combination, but the heating unit was nearly brand modern and a top-of-the-line model.
The cooling unit was extremely outdated and struggled to manage the Summer heat and brutal humidity. The air conditioning system seemed to run non stop and yet I wasn’t satisfied with the level of comfort, but plus, it consumed a fantastic deal of energy, resulting in super high energy bills, then i started looking into modern air conditioning systems. When I consulted with a local Heating and Air Conditioning supplier in Tuscaloosa, he recommended purchasing a heat pump instead, however a heat pump is quite a bit more fancy than an air conditioning system. This is because the single unit provides both heating and cooling. It operates by simply transferring heat between the indoors and outdoors. The process is especially clean, quiet and energy efficient. It costs a lot less to operate a heat pump than a heater, for the local weather conditions, the combination of a heat pump and furnace is ideal. The heat pump handles demand for the majority of the year, then during the Summer months, it operates just like an air conditioning system. The system is especially effective at dehumidifying. When the weather cools off, it reverses the flow of refrigerant to bring ambient heat indoors. If the outdoor temperature should drop below chilly and the heat bump begins to have difficulties measuring up, the furnace automatically starts up.
