Heat Pump Articles

Want to heat and cool your Akron home, fight climate change, and save money—all at the same time?

Get a heat pump.

Our team at The K Company, Inc. regularly gets calls about frozen heat pumps. Though common, a heat pump freeze-up usually means your system’s components are not working correctly. Sometimes you can fix it yourself. But oftentimes, you will need to call a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) professional, like us, as the problem may require a part replacement or complex repair.

Homeowners generally favor heat pumps for their efficiency. However, a number of common issues can cause them to run very inefficiently.

Having a team of professionals inspect your HVAC system is great, but if an issue is discovered, it’s important to have it addressed soon.

One reason Ohio homeowners love heat pumps is they function as an all-in-one unit. Instead of purchasing and maintaining a separate furnace and air conditioning system, you can simply transition your heat pump from the heat setting to the cooling setting and vice versa as seasons warrant.

In some ways, heat pumps have an edge over the traditional combination of a furnace and central air conditioning (AC) unit. However, no two households are the same, and each option has its pros and cons That’s why The K Company, Inc. is pleased to offer a variety of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) products tailored to your Akron living needs.

The K Company is pleased to bring the finest heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) options to Ohio residents.

If you are in the market for a new heat pump, efficiency is probably a key factor in your search. The Air Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI) has a universal ranking system for heating and cooling units that serves to help. 

So you are looking to invest in a heat pump. You are not alone––many Americans are making the switch.
