With energy bills continuing to skyrocket across the country, just heating your home can seem like a luxury. However, there is a simple upgrade homeowners can make that may lead to some eye-popping savings.
YouTuber and home energy expert Jonathan Tracey (@JonathanTracey) uploaded a short clip that addressed a myth that has been circulating about heat pumps. Some critics point to a heat pump's alleged noisiness as its most obvious weakness, but Tracey shrugged off that claim.
"This heat pump has now been installed for six months," Tracey said. After setting up a microphone to measure the system's noise level, he confidently debunked any claims that a heat pump is too loud. Tracey clocked the system at just over 50 decibels while standing 1 meter away. That is roughly the same amount of noise a fridge makes.
"There is no way that this is going to annoy anybody's neighbors," Tracey added.
High-efficiency HVAC systems can greatly improve your home's overall energy performance, helping you save money over time. That can be particularly true in colder climates, where heating often accounts for a large share of monthly energy bills.
