Yes. A heat pump provides both heating and cooling from a single outdoor unit by reversing the refrigerant cycle between seasons. Modern cold-climate heat pumps with variable-speed inverter compressors operate efficiently down to 0 to minus 15 degrees Fahrenheit. In extremely cold OH climates, a dual-fuel configuration pairs the heat pump with a gas furnace that engages as backup only below the economic balance point — the temperature where gas heating costs less per BTU than electric heat pump operation. This gives you heat pump efficiency for 80 to 90 percent of the season with gas backup for the coldest days. KIC Refrigeration designs the right configuration for your Washington Court House climate zone and heating needs.
