Yes, the heat pump (in the heating mode) is like an air conditioner in reverse. It cools the outside air and heats the room air. Of course, you need Freon to do this heat-transfer process.

Do all home central air conditioning units need freon?
yes
If it is cold outside and the air conditioner is on why is it hot inside the room?
you might need freon in the air condition.
How do you tell if your home heating system needs freeon?
I guess you have a heatpump or you would not be asking this. You need a set of freon pressure guages and the heater specs. Now you learn what the pressure lines are suppossed to be doing at the temperatures inside and outside and adjust the freon accordingly.
Which forms of energy are produced by a burning candle?
By heat and light because a candle gives of of heat and it is lit so in some cases we need to see in the dark
Do you need a thermostat?
Vehicle will run without a thermostat - however will not run as efficiently and will have not heat
Why would your central air conditioner blow warm air only in the middle of the day and blow fine at night?
Your air conditioning unit might need recharged with freon. If there is not enough freon in the system the system will not cool the air in the heat of the day but when the outside temperature drops in the evening it might be easier to cool.
What do you do when your air conditioner doesnt blow cold air?
you would need to add freon
If the heater in a 1992 Cadillac works but the air conditioner does not blow cold air could it need freon?
It could need freon. and you can do it most auto part stores carry it so does walmart
Why would the air conditioner blow hot air in a 2000 Lincoln continental?
You might need freon
How do you add freon to your janitrol heat-pump?
In order to buy freon you need a license, therefore you shouldn't attempt to add freon. Call a contractor to service your unit.
Does your heat pump need freon to heat your house?
Yes a heat pump reverses the function of an air conditioner. Like any refrigerant system if a Technician says "it needs Freon", make sure the leak is repaired first.
Can you have too much freon in system?
yes you will blow the seals out you need to pull vacum on the whole system and watch the guage on the vacum pump when you hit -40 to -50 then fill freon to +65 to +80
Why do Heat vents blow gas smell?
you need a head casket
Why won't my AIR conditioner blow COLD air when pressing on the gas?
You may need to get your freon recharged or your A/C compressor might be bad.
What could the problem be if your 1998 Chevy pick-up's air conditioner won't blow cold air?
It might need to have the Freon re-charged.
Can you use heat on monofiber hair extensions?
Yes you can use heat on Monofibre extensions. You can use a blow drier on a medium heat or heated rollers. You shouldn't use straighteners ,but you don't need to. If you want Monofibre to be totally straight you can blow dry it straight. You should not use a blow drier on a top heat.
Understanding The Geothermal Heat Pump?
Conventional heat pumps heat homes and buildings by extracting heat from the outside air. In summer months, heat pumps function as air conditioners by reversing the process. Unfortunately, heat pumps are trying to provide heat when the air is coldest outside and to cool when the air is hottest. Thus, in very cold and very hot weather, conventional heat pumps do not operate efficiently.The Geothermal Heat PumpGeothermal heat pumps offer another solution to heat and cool homes and commercial buildings. Instead of exchanging heat with air, these heat pumps exchange heat with the ground or a source of water. This gives geothermal heat pumps a significant efficiency advantage over conventional heat pumps because the ground and water sources are more thermally inert than air. What this means is that the ground below the frost line and bodies of water do not change temperature much no matter what the season. So geothermal heat pumps do not have to work as hard to heat in the winter and cool in the summer as conventional heat pumps do. Consequently, they use significantly less electricity than conventional heat pumps and have less need for auxiliary heating sources. There are two types of geothermal heat pumps. The closed system uses a mix of water and antifreeze that flows through pipes buried in the ground or submerged in a large body of water such as a pond or lake. The open loop system pumps water from a well, pond, or lake through the heat pump and then pumps the water back to the source or to a drainage ditch.Factors to ConsiderGeothermal heat pumps are more efficient than conventional heat pumps, but that efficiency advantage varies greatly. A consumer may see as little as a 20% gain over his current energy source, or he may see in excess of 60% gains in efficiency. Factors such as the local geology, availability of a water source, the type of geothermal heat pump installed, and the cost of the type of energy currently used impact the efficiency gains. Geothermal heat pumps also cost twice as much or more than conventional heat pumps to purchase and install. However, they cost less to maintain and usually have a longer lifespan than conventional heat pumps. Home and business owners should do significant research and seek expert assistance before determining which type of heat pump is right for them.
