Evaluating a Rheem Heat Pump

Rheem heat pump is a tool that, as a part of a package unit, may have the potential to make your home a whole lot more comfortable. You might even have heard about some of the potential benefits that could come along with a heat pump. They won’t apply to every specific situation, but at one point or another, a heat pump might be able to heat and cool your home more efficiently than alternatives, thus saving you money. Read the blog in the link above for more information on some of the relative benefits of a heat pump.

Now, determining whether or not a heat pump, or more specifically, a Rheem heat pump, is going to make a good match for your home is going to require the input of professionals. But let’s just say that you’ve already consulted the professionals or given our team a call and hammered out the details. Now what you need to do is assure yourself of the objective quality of the Rheem heat pump in question.

If you’re wondering about what to look for, consider some of these selling points of quality in a heat pump from Rheem manufacturing company, many of which you will find in the models on our website.

-Energy Efficiency - energy efficiency is something you should always keep your eyes out for in an HVAC unit, heat pump or otherwise. Some heat pumps come with optimized fan orifices to improve airflow efficiency as well as improved tubing designs and more. Energy efficiency has one goal in mind; energy savings to heat and cool your home more economically.

-Durability - Durability can be hard to categorize easily, but there are many features of some heat pumps that make them tougher and better suited to cope with age and the influence of corrosion. Some heat pump systems are made with a composite base pan, rust resistant screws, a powder coat paint system to stand up to corrosion, specialized louvered coil protection and more.

-Corrosion resistant parts and hardware - Some heat pump systems come with features like rust resistant screws and powder coat paint finishes, such as those mentioned above, that go a long way toward extending the life of a high-quality heat pump.

-Ease of access - The ease with which you can access a heavy pump system will also engender a lot of value to the system. Some heat pumps come with features like PlusOneTM expanded valve space that make it easier to access to the valves and ports, as well as PlusOneTM Triple Service Access. Whether you or a technician is the one ultimately servicing your heat pump, these features will significantly facilitate access.

-Fewer fasteners - Fewer fasteners means better structural integrity and fewer opportunities for condensation or rust to form. It also means less hardware to keep track of and replace, especially if you lose a screw.

-Coil protection - Many Rheem models come with coiled louver panels to protect the coils of the scroll compressor. They also enhance the strength of the cabinet and thus, the overall unit and system.

-Sound dampening features - Some heat pumps come with improved tubing design, enhanced mufflers, an efficient scroll compressor that makes less noise, and other features, all of which are geared towards keeping a lid on volume.

-A good air handler - Alright, so the air handler is not a part of the heat pump itself, but it is a part of the system. Without a good air handler, how is all of that air going to get circulated around your house, anyway? There’s your need for a quality air handler.

These are only some of the features that provide value in the format of a heat pump from Rheem. There are others, but to see a real life illustration of a Rheem heat pump that will come with a lot of the features mentioned above, check out the heat pump that comes as a part of the Rheem Classic 2 Ton 14 SEER Heat Pump Split System. In that package, you will meet all of those requirements and then some.
