Dave Lennox Signature® Collection XP19 Heat Pump
Heat pumps are attractive to many homeowners in Virginia because of their energy efficiency.
If you’ve ever considered installing a heat pump in your home, there are some things to consider. First of all, heat pumps can be very efficient and save you a lot on your utility bill whenever the temperatures outside are not extremely hot or extremely cold.
Why “maybe?” Because it can depend on where you live and what type of weather you have. Simply put, heat pumps work best in mild to moderate climates, similar to Richmond, Virginia. If the temperature regularly falls below freezing, a heat pump would not be a good choice.
Heat pumps work by MOVING heat, NOT generating heat. They move heat from outside your home inside – either from the air or from the ground. So, if the outside air is below freezing, it takes a lot more energy to warm a cold house – and they lose their efficiency. You will need a back-up energy source, either electric or gas, to make up the difference.
Also, heat pumps warm the house differently from traditional heat sources in that the air flowing out of the vents in not very hot. It blows out sort of tepid. Some folks like this because they say this warms the house more evenly and you don’t have hot spots and cold spots.
People who are used to gas heat usually say they don’t like the initial cold air. They are used to really warm, toasty air blowing out of the vents – and most heat pumps don’t work like that. With a heat pump, you can’t go stand over the vent when the heater turns on and experience that wonderful sensation of warm air warming your frozen feet.
There are new hybrid heat systems which utilize a heat pump when outdoor temperatures are above freezing, but are also equipped with a heating unit for those sub-freezing winter temperatures. This balances the energy efficiency of the heat pump with the need to stay warm when it’s really cold. At the colder temperatures, gas or electric heating is more efficient than a normal heat pump – and toasty air roars out of those vents. So you get the best of both worlds. The heat pump keeps the house comfortable most of the time, but when the temperature drops – the heating unit kicks on and warms the house.
To find out more about heat pumps and about which system is right for your home, call your heat pump specialists at 804.323.0189. Many units qualify for tax credits when you replace your old unit with a new Energy Star rated system. The professionals at Marshall Mechanical will help you choose the right system for comfort, energy savings, and your budget.

Unless a low-end unit, heat pumps should last between 10 to 20 years, especially with annual maintenance. But a lot of it has to do with other factors like proper ventilation, and where the heat pump has been located — in or outside the home.
This photos is of a 9-year old heat pump unit in a Richmond home that failed because it was installed in a basement with no air flow whatsoever. That’s why most heat pumps are installed outside the home, particularly in a shady area that gets proper air flow and protects them from the sun. Being in the sun makes them have to work harder to keep your home cool and therefore they are less energy efficient and thus end up costing you more.
If you are in the Richmond area, and you have a heat pump installed in a basement, you may end up having to replace it earlier than the typical lifespan of the product. If you haven’t had your heat pump unit checked within the last 12 months, please call us today at 804.323.0189 and we’ll get one of our highly-trained HVAC technicians to inspect the unit and make suggestions on how to keep it running longer and more efficiently.
P.S. If you’d like to know more about the most efficient heat pumps you can buy, including solar units, you can check out the various heat pumps from Lennox on our website: Lennox Energy Efficient Heat Pumps from Marshall Mechanical, Richmond VA

Keeping your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer has never been easier — or more environmentally friendly.
By utilizing the free and renewable solar energy stored in the ground, geothermal heating systems offer the finest in home comfort heating and air conditioning. This is a free, renewable, clean and environmentally-friendly source of energy.
So, if it is decreased energy costs, enhanced comfort, safety and reliability that you want out of your heating system, a geothermal heating unit could be the right fit for you.
The experts at WaterFurnace recommend geothermal systems, like the Envision series, which can be easily installed in a wide varity of installations – new or old homes, large or small. Although most systems are simply single units in a forced-air application, they can also be used for other types of installations depending on your home and your heating and cooling needs.
Take a look at how homeowners are now using geothermal energy:
- Geothermal units provide hot water for radiant floor applications, by circulating warm water through the tubing encased in the floor. Floors covered in tile, wood, linoleum or stone are kept toasty warm, even on the coldest days. Since the entire floor acts as a giant radiator, you’ll experience a room that is comfortably conditioned with head-to-toe consistent comfort.
- Homes with large demands for domestic or potable water heating will benefit from the exceptional efficiency of a WaterFurnace Synergy geothermal system. This unit provides dedicated hot water for heating and domestic use and both heating and cooling furnished through a conventional duct system to condition the air inside the home. The complete system provides the ultimate in savings and comfort with safe, reliable and quiet performance.
- Geothermal units can also be utilized to heat water for pools and spas. You’ll find a geothermal heat pump will heat your pool or spa for much less than an ordinary pool heater. And compared to fossil fuel burning heaters, it’s much safer too, without concerns associated with carbon monoxide poisoning.
- A geothermal heat pump can keep your sidewalks or driveway free of ice and snow during the cold winter months. Eliminate the hazards of walking on ice-covered sidewalks, and forget the back-breaking effort of shoveling snow.
Geothermal systems operate more efficiently than traditional heating and air-conditioning systems because they deliver four units of energy for every one unit of electrical energy used. By combining stored earth energy with safe electrical power, homeowners may realize savings of up to 70 percent on heating, cooling and hot water costs when they install a geothermal unit.
For more information on installing an energy efficient heating and cooling system, like the Envision Series by WaterFurnace, call your locally-owned Geothermal experts at Marshall Mechanical at 804.323.0189. And if you’d like to read more about geothermal energy, you can find details on our website at this link: Geothermal Heat Pumps.
P.S. Geothermal heat pumps / geothermal systems qualify for 30% Federal tax credits due to their high energy efficiency. Don’t forget to ask about this when you call us at 804.323.0189. Ask for Mike Smith, our Geothermal expert.
