Electric heating is one of the most cost-effective ways to heat your home. Although there are several electric heating systems, such as underfloor heating, convectors, and radiators, the combination that will save you the most money in the long run is usually electric baseboard heaters and a heat pump. Why? Because of the low cost of these devices, the availability of electricity in Quebec, and of course, the eco-friendly aspect of the heat pump.
Electric Heating: An Economical Solution
The heat pump is a central or wall-mounted electric heating device that allows for heating in the winter and air conditioning in the summer. Gaining in popularity, its purchase cost is becoming increasingly affordable, while its efficiency continues to improve over the years. The heat pump extracts heat from the outside air to push it inside the house, which does not require any energy-intensive heating element. Therefore, it is an ideal tool to pair with a basic electric heating system, such as baseboards or convectors. Additionally, the devices offered on the market are increasingly sophisticated; you will be able to afford a quiet heat pump, like those offered by Daikin.
The Heat Pump: An Eco-Friendly Electric Heating Device
Why not just have electric baseboards as electric heating in your home? Because the heat pump requires less electricity to do the same job as your baseboards. Its performance is excellent, compared to most other electric heating systems. Moreover, low-temperature heat pumps are now on the market, capable of heating a residence even in very cold weather.
