How Heat Pumps Work

How LG Heat Pump Systems Operate

Heat pumps get their name because they transfer heat energy from a lower-temperature source to a higher-temperature space, effectively "pumping" heat against its natural flow.

Inverter heat pumps

Instead of just turning on and off at a fixed, full output, inverter heat pumps use inverter compressors so the heat pump can operate at variable speeds.

Heat pumps versus conventional gas furnaces

While a gas furnace uses a fuel source to generate heat through electricity or a chemical reaction, a heat pump uses refrigerant to absorb heat from one side of the system and expel it from the other.

The difference between types of heat pumps

While a fixed-speed heat pump has “on” and “off,” an inverter heat pump operates only as much as necessary, without over-conditioning the space or consuming excessive energy.

Heating Seasonal Performance Factor (HSPF) represents total heating output relative to electricity used. Like SEER, the higher the HSPF rating, the more efficient. Talk to your local independent contractor about HSPF and LG's RLC.

The Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) is the industry-wide rating for energy consumption. The higher the number, the more efficiently a product will produce cool air, while conserving our natural resources.
