Dual Fuel Heat Pumps

Dual fuel technology combines the efficient heating and cooling performance of a heat pump with the consistent heating capacity of a gas furnace to keep you comfortable year-round. In summer, the heat pump works like a high-efficiency central air conditioner. In spring, fall and winter it provides cost-effective and efficient heating. During the coldest months of the year, the gas furnaces takes over only when needed.
