High-efficiency heat pump installation and service for year-round comfort.
Heat Pumps: One System for Heating and Cooling Your Home
Heat pumps are one of the most efficient ways to heat and cool your home. Instead of generating heat like a furnace, a heat pump moves heat — pulling warmth from outdoor air in winter and removing heat from your home in summer. The result is year-round comfort from a single system, with significantly lower energy costs.
At Siegman & Schaefer, we install the full line of Trane heat pumps in Hanover PA, Westminster MD, and surrounding communities. Modern heat pumps work effectively even in the cold winters of Southern PA and Northern MD — and when paired with a gas furnace backup (dual-fuel system), they provide the best combination of efficiency and comfort available.
Whether you're replacing an aging system, building a new home, or looking for a more efficient way to heat and cool, our team will help you determine if a heat pump is the right fit for your home and budget.
How a Heat Pump Works
❄️ In Winter (Heating Mode)
The heat pump extracts heat from outdoor air — even in cold temperatures — and transfers it inside your home. It's 2-3x more efficient than traditional electric heating.
☀️ In Summer (Cooling Mode)
The heat pump reverses, pulling heat from inside your home and releasing it outside — just like a traditional air conditioner, but often more efficiently.
Who Should Consider a Heat Pump?
- Homeowners who want one system for both heating and cooling
- Anyone looking to reduce energy costs and utility bills
- Homeowners replacing an aging AC or furnace (upgrade both at once)
- New construction or major renovations
- Environmentally conscious homeowners who want to reduce their carbon footprint
- Homes with existing ductwork that want a more efficient system
