Although it feels cold outside, the air still has heat in it that the heat pump can use as a source of heat. The fact that the heat pump moves heat from one place to the other (as opposed to creating heat directly from electricity or gas) is the key to it's remarkable efficiency. A heat pump usually produces over 3 times more heat per watt of electricity than standard electric heating. While some heat pumps use outside air as their source of heat, others use the heat available under the ground o
