What makes heat pumps in Nova Scotia a better choice to tackle with the cold weather is that these harvests are prevailing heat from the outdoor air and bring it inside without making use of fuels!  Limits of the Heat Pumps – Heat pumps extract heat from the air outside, hence their efficiency is directly proportional to the temperature outdoor which means when there is less heat in the air the heat pumps need to work a bit harder to extract the available heat. Top quality and highly efficient heat pumps can extract heat down to temperatures as low as -20 degrees Celsius and beyond that in some instances.
