text: You can pretty much always assume that a heat pump's COP of Heating Performance is going to be greater than or equal to the COP for Cooling performance which you can convert from the systems EER (COP = EER X .293), because, as discussed earlier, the heat from the compressor gets added to the heat being pumped into the home when the heat pump operates in Heating Mode, which usually ends up making a heat pumps heating performance greater than it's cooling performance (However, it's
text: When the heat pump is operating in the heating mode without any supplementary heat, the air leaving it will be cooler than air heated by a normal furnace.
text: When operated in heating mode, a heat pump is typically more efficient than an electrical resistance heater.
text: When a heat pump is operating in heating mode, frost accumulates on the outdoor heat exchanger.
text: For the majority of this article we'll be using examples of the COP for an air source heat pump in heating mode, because as we'll soon find out, a heat pump operating in heating mode has a very high COP, and this make's understanding COP easier.
text: If the outdoor temperature falls to near or below freezing when the heat pump is operating in the heating mode, moisture in the air passing over the outside coil will condense and freeze on it.
text: When a heat pump is operating in the heating mode or heat cycle, the outdoor air is relatively cool and the outdoor coil acts as an evaporator.
