I have considered getting a heat pump system for my house.
I think I would get a ductless heat pump since the installation seems so much easier.
You don’t need to tear down the walls or ceiling. There is simply an indoor air handler and outdoor air compressor. They connect by wiring and refrigerant tubes within a 50 foot range of each other. The heat pump installation only takes a few hours and the architecture of the home is secure. I also like that there is no energy loss with air ducts. Did you know around 30% of energy consumption with a HVAC unit is due to the ductwork? The air can leak out of the metal ducts if there is even a microscopic hole not seen to the naked eye. A small tear around the seam can really make a mess of your energy bills. Not only that, ductwork can get dirty and polluted indoor air quality without proper ductwork cleaning. A ductless device ensures that it heats and cools the specific room it is in. This allows for zone control if multiple units are set up with their own thermostat around the house. This additionally will save energy because unused rooms don’t need to get climate control and home occupants typically don’t want the same temperature. Heat pumps on their own are extremely energy efficient too. They don’t create heat energy, but take it from the existing air, significantly cutting down your bills. All these factors have really enticed me to heavily look into buying the device. The initial price tag is high, but I read that over a few months, it does pay back for itself.
