  2. Heating seasonal performance factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heating_seasonal...

    HSPF is specifically used to measure the efficiency of air source heat pumps. HSPF is defined as the ratio of heat output (measured in BTUs) over the heating season to electricity used (measured in watt-hours). [1][2] It therefore has units of BTU/watt-hr. The higher the HSPF rating of a unit, the more energy efficient it is.

  3. Seasonal energy efficiency ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seasonal_energy_efficiency...

    A heat pump with a higher SEER rating for cooling mode would also usually be more efficient in heating mode, rated using HSPF. When operated in heating mode, a heat pump is typically more efficient than an electrical resistance heater. This is because a space heater can convert only the input electrical energy directly to output heat energy ...

  4. Ground source heat pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_source_heat_pump

    A ground source heat pump (also geothermal heat pump) is a heating/cooling system for buildings that use a type of heat pump to transfer heat to or from the ground, taking advantage of the relative constancy of temperatures of the earth through the seasons. Ground-source heat pumps (GSHPs) – or geothermal heat pumps (GHP), as they are ...

  5. Air source heat pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_source_heat_pump

    An air source heat pump (ASHP) is a heat pump that can absorb heat from air outside a building and release it inside; it uses the same vapor-compression refrigeration process and much the same equipment as an air conditioner, but in the opposite direction. ASHPs are the most common type of heat pump and, usually being smaller, tend to be used ...

    The Government has written that a heat pump “generates 3 times more energy than it consumes”.. Evaluation. Heat pumps are highly efficient and can release three times as much heat energy into ...

  7. Coefficient of performance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_performance

    The coefficient of performance or COP (sometimes CP or CoP) of a heat pump, refrigerator or air conditioning system is a ratio of useful heating or cooling provided to work (energy) required. [1][2] Higher COPs equate to higher efficiency, lower energy (power) consumption and thus lower operating costs. The COP is used in thermodynamics.
