Heat Pump Rtu

A Heat Pump RTU, or Rooftop Unit, is a type of HVAC system that is designed to both heat and cool a space. It is a self-contained unit that is installed on the roof of a building and is connected to a network of ducts and vents that distribute air throughout the building. The Heat Pump RTU is a highly efficient and cost-effective way to heat and cool a space, as it uses a refrigerant to transfer heat from one area to another. This process is known as the refrigeration cycle, and it works by using a compressor to move the refrigerant between two coils, one inside the building and one outside. The heat from the outside coil is transferred to the inside coil, and the air inside the building is cooled or heated, depending on the season. The Heat Pump RTU is an excellent choice for both residential and commercial applications, as it is a reliable and energy-efficient way to maintain comfortable temperatures in a space.
