Heat Pumps in the Texas Climate.

Heat pumps find thermal energy where others find none. In Fort Worth, understanding the performance curve of these assets is critical for structural efficiency.

The Reversing Valve Mechanics

A heat pump is essentially an AC unit with a reversing valve. This allows the system to move thermal energy in both directions. In the winter, the system extracts heat from the outdoor air and moves it indoors. While modern units remain efficient down to low temperatures, understanding the "balance point"—where supplemental heat is required—is a clinical necessity.

Performance and COP

The Coefficient of Performance (COP) measures the efficiency of a heat pump. A system with a COP of 3 delivers three times more heat energy than the electrical energy it consumes.
