More efficiency and savings. Lower climate impact.
Did you know that heat for buildings is the second largest source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Ontario?1
A residential natural gas heat pump system is an efficient, economical way to heat your home and water, helping you save more energy and lower your carbon footprint. With an annual fuel utilization efficiency (AFUE) of 140 percent2, a natural gas heat pump lowers energy use and greenhouse gas emissions compared to a conventional natural gas furnace or boiler.
How residential natural gas heat pumps support a clean energy future
Residential natural gas heat pumps can be a pathway to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050 as the natural gas distribution system is decarbonized with carbon-neutral fuels such as renewable natural gas.
Lower energy use and greenhouse gas emissions compared to conventional furnaces and boilers2.
Compatible with renewable natural gas, further reducing emissions.
Provides space heating and hot water in one.
Exceed building codes and standards with efficiency greater than 100 percent.4
A natural gas
heat pump system
consists of:
A gas heat pump unit
located outside the home
that draws heat from the
outdoor air.
An air handling unit
which helps distribute
the heated air throughout
your home.
A water storage tank
that provides provides
domestic hot water.
How do natural gas heat pumps work?
Gas heat pumps use natural
gas as a primary energy
source and capture energy
from ambient outdoor air as
an additional energy source.
This heat is then transferred
indoors to warm indoor air
and water.
By extracting energy from
outdoor air as an additional
source and moving heat
instead of generating it, gas
heat pumps achieve an energy
output greater than their input,
resulting in efficiencies of
over 100 percent.
You will not need a
backup heating system.
Gas heat pumps keep
your home warm all
winter, even on the
coldest days.
