What Is It

A Hybrid Heat system reacts to changing climates and automatically adjusts to the most efficient energy saving method available to heat or cool a home.

How It Works

A Hybrid Heat system is a fuel-saving alternative to traditional heating and cooling systems in that it combines a furnace with a heat pump, rather than an air conditioner. A heat pump works as an air conditioner in hot weather, but can also reverse the process and heat the home when cold weather arrives. Rather than burning fuel to generate heat, the heat pump moves heat without a flame, making it a more efficient method of heating a home. Hybrid Heat is adaptable for gas/electric systems and by using a variable speed fan hot or cool air is distributed consistently and evenly throughout a home.
