An air conditioner and a heat pump are like a sports team: the air conditioner is the star pitcher who excels at keeping the indoors cool during the hot summer months, while the heat pump acts as the utility player who can play multiple positions and help out during different seasons. When it’s hot, the heat pump acts as the relief pitcher and helps cool things down, but when it’s cold, it steps up to the plate as the starting pitcher and warms up the indoors. Together they make a winning team that can handle any weather and keep your home comfortable all year round!
