Do not block indoor supply and return vents with furniture or other objects. Ensure proper airflow to indoor supply and return vents, and around your outdoor unit.It draws your home’s heated air up the chimney.
Dirty or clogged air filters restrict airflow and cause your compressor to work harder, increasing costs. Check and/or replace air filters every 1–2 months.Since emergency heat costs nearly twice as much to operate as the heat pump during normal operation, it should not be used except in the case of system failure while awaiting repairs. Only set the thermostat to “emergency heat” in the event the heat pump is not working.Programmable and smart thermostats designed for heat pumps permit setbacks without increasing operating costs. Homes with heat pumps: Frequent thermostat changes will increase energy costs and are not recommended.
