Whirlpool^® Heat Pumps

Indoor Climate Control

A heat pump uses the difference between the outdoor and indoor temperatures to cool and heat your home. Because it moves rather than generates heat it can provide more energy than it consumes. For moderate climates, heat pumps offer an energy-efficient solution for indoor climate control.

Choose High-Efficiency

The efficiency of a heat pump is determined by the Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) rating.  The higher the SEER rating, the greater the efficiency and the more the potential for savings on energy costs.  Whirlpool brand heat pumps range in efficiency from 13 to 18 SEER.  While the 13 SEER product saves remarkable amounts of energy, the ENERGY STAR® qualified 18 SEER unit is our most energy-efficient heat pump currently available.

Note: If your current system is more than 10 years old, it most likely has a SEER rating of 10 or below.

Be Eco-Conscious

When you are purchasing a new heat pump, be sure to ask your dealer what type of refrigerant the system uses. Whirlpool Gold® heat pumps are available with the new, environmentally friendly R410A refrigerant. This chlorine-free refrigerant is better for the environment and it transfers heat more efficiently.

Note: Within the next few years, manufacturers will no longer be able to use the old R22 refrigerant, so servicing a system containing the old refrigerant will become more expensive.

Enjoy Quiet Operation

Select Whirlpool Gold® heat pumps feature a two-stage compressor that operates at a lower capacity to quietly heat and cool your home. In addition, the Quiet Partner™ capable defrost system on Whirlpool Gold® models allows for a quieter defrost during the unit's heat cycle.
