Cold Climate Heat Pump

A unit rated by ENERGY STARĀ® as a cold climate heat pump (CCHP) has met more stringent requirements for operating in colder temperatures than your average heat pump. Products undergo verification by a third party recognized by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Cold climate heat pumps work the same as any heat pump. In winter, they take the heat energy from the outside air, draw it into the unit, and use that heat energy to heat the air inside your home.
