How do heat pumps work?
Heat pump’s heat a home by drawing warmth from the air outside and transferring it into your home, like a refrigerator but in reverse. When it’s warm outside, it changes direction and acts like an air conditioner, removing heat from your home.
Heat pumps are an efficient way to heat your room during winter. They usually take around 10-30 minutes to bring a room up to temperature. The temperature is then maintained by a thermostat which keeps it within 1-2 degrees of the set temperature.
According to energywise.govt.nz, a heat pump used 6 hours per day for 6 months of the year with an energy output of 6KwH will cost around $400 per year to run. So, if you use a heat pump instead of an equivalent electric heater in your living space you could save around $500 a year.
Is a heat pump the same as a ventilation system?
No. A heat pump shift relatively large amounts of heat in or out of your home to warm or cool it. Ventilation systems shift drier air from the ceiling space or from outside into the living space, and are designed to reduce condensation.

Ducted Heat Pump Systems vrs Split Systems
Ducted, Hi-Wall or Floor Console? The right type of heatpump for you will be influenced by a number of factors. Location, room size, insulation levels and budget are all important factors when determining what type of heat pump to install.
The most popular and simple-to-install system in New Zealand is the single split system. These are designed to heat only one room or, if sized correctly, can take the chill off connecting rooms. They come in a range of hi-wall sizes, colours and designs, or you could choose a floor mounted console. Split systems can range anywhere for $2000 up to around $7000.
Ducted Systems have a vent in every room and are piped through the ceiling. They’re less intrusive, but they’re expensive to install. The cost of a ducted heat pump is $15,000 or more for an average 150m² sized home.
