If you want lower Tallahassee, FL energy bills, heat pumps can be more economical than AC installations. Air conditioners only provide cooling and are paired with furnaces for heating. Heat pumps provide both heating and cooling. That saves you the cost of maintaining and eventually replacing two different systems. With annual maintenance services, heat pumps generally last for 15 years. Air conditioners tend to last from 15 to 20 years. There are other differences as well:

Energy Efficiency

Air conditioners and heat pumps in cooling mode are about equal when it comes to energy savings. However, the higher a unit’s SEER rating, the more efficient that unit will be. In the heating mode is where heat pumps can save you some serious money. Rather than burning fuel like furnaces, they warm your home using heat extracted from the outdoor air. Taking advantage of this free natural resource, heat pumps can reduce energy costs by a wide margin.

Indoor Comfort

Many modern heat pumps have variable speed blower motors and two-stage compressors. These features allow heat pumps to consistently maintain desired temperatures with incremental adjustments. Traditional air conditioners cycle on and off all day. That gobbles energy and can create hot and cold spots. Heat pumps with longer running times are more effective at removing humidity and maintaining uniform temperatures.

Ductless Mini-split Heat Pumps

Ductless heat pumps are similar to traditional heat pumps, but they don’t require ductwork. Mini-splits are zoned systems with one outdoor unit and one or more indoor units. Each indoor unit governs a zone. Each zone can be maintained at a different temperature. Energy costs can decrease radically when you’re only heating and cooling the rooms you use.

Great service and good communication! The value this company provides in the HVAC industry in Tallahassee is second to none! Marty and his team were easy to talk to, and took the time to explain all my options to address my air conditioning issues. I will continue to recommend them to family and friends!

I would highly recommend High Quality Heating and Air, Inc. They are friendly, responsive, and affordable. They came out to check what was wrong, identified the issue, explained clearly the potential timeframe to get the part and perform the repair, along with the low end and high end costs, and stayed in contact. The issue was repaired timely and with great customer service.

Marty and his team do a great job replacing our two old AC units. They are very responsive and professional. Marty made some good recommendations that saved us a lot on our energy bill last summer. I highly recommend the company.

I scheduled a maintenance check up and Randall came out to check my A/C unit. He was so professional and punctual. He explained everything to me as he performed the maintenance. He wore a face covering which made me feel like he had my safety and his own in mind. I will use this company every year. Thanks Randall.

Our air conditioning unit decided to break down one morning. We called High Quality at 4am and by 11am it was fixed! Great responsiveness and as always fixed with no complaints. They are the best!

High Quality Heat and Air was highly recommended to us when we knew we needed to replace our air conditioning system. We are very glad we contacted them. Marty met with us and went over our options, gave us good advice, an honest proposal and ordered our equipment without delay. His professional crew installed the unit efficiently without any inconvenience to us. This is one good company in my opinion.
