Thankfully the heat pump takes care of humidity as well

When the HVAC cooling process begins, the heat pump does what it’s named for and pumps heat

It was the first time so far this year where I really did feel hot. The temperature was in the upper 80’s and I was out in early afternoon sun. In the winter, the early afternoon sun is normally the warmest so I like to go for my walks then. After yesterday, I’ll be getting out of the air conditioning for walks late in the day or early in the morning for at least the next 5 or 6 months. It’s fine with me. I think acceptance is key when it comes to the heat and humidity of this region. There’s nothing more one can do about it than accept the fact that it gets extremely hot and thick for about a four month span. But we have a heat pump and HVAC cooling to thank for allowing us to manage the summer heat. Without modern HVAC technology, it might be too hot for me to live here in the summer. Even though I’m from here, that much heat for that long would probably have me running north for part of the year. But like I said, the heat pump has us covered when it comes to air conditioning. Yet, it’s not just the HVAC cooling that we rely on with the heat pump. Of course in the winter, we might need the heat pump for just littlest bit of HVAC heating. That’s rare though. No, the heat pump also takes care of the humidity balance in our homes as well. When the HVAC cooling process begins, the heat pump does what it’s named for and pumps heat. That’s what this HVAC technology actually does, it move or pumps heat from one area to another. While it’s a genius combination of great engineering and physics, it also provides for the reduction in airborne moisture.
