What is the generic definition of a heat pump? I hate to admit to large ignorances, but I’ve heated with wood most of my adult life and have deferred learning any HVAC. That’s about to change because my wife just bought us an old house in Arkansas and it needs everything. I want air conditioning for my old age, and dependable heat. If I do a search for Heat Pump, all the information there makes my eyes glaze over. What is a common man’s heat pump?
