Why Heat Pumps Work Great in Colder Climates

Why Heat Pumps Work Great in Colder Climates

When most people think of heat pumps, they imagine efficient systems for mild weather, but modern technology has changed that.


Today’s cold-climate heat pumps are designed to perform efficiently even when the temperature drops well below freezing.


At Twintech, we proudly install and sell Amana and Panasonic heat pumps that deliver dependable comfort year-round, even in Canada’s toughest winters.


How Modern Heat Pumps Handle the Cold


Older heat pumps struggled to extract heat once the outdoor temperature dipped too low.


However, advancements in inverter technology and variable-speed compressors have revolutionized performance.


Brands like Amana and Panasonic now offer cold-climate models that continue operating efficiently down to –25°C and beyond.


These systems adjust their output automatically to maintain steady indoor warmth without overworking, which keeps your home comfortable while minimizing energy use.


Energy Efficiency That Saves You Money


Heat pumps don’t create heat—they move it.


This process requires far less energy than burning fuel, resulting in lower heating bills and a smaller carbon footprint.


In many cases, homeowners can cut their annual heating costs by 30–50% compared to electric baseboard or oil systems.


Both Amana and Panasonic heat pumps come equipped with ENERGY STAR® ratings, ensuring optimal efficiency for the climate you live in.


Year-Round Comfort: Heating and Cooling in One


One of the biggest benefits of a heat pump is its dual functionality.


With a single system, you get efficient heating during the winter and cooling in the summer.


There’s no need to manage two separate units or fuel sources, simplifying maintenance and saving space.


Reliable and Quiet Performance


Amana and Panasonic have engineered their heat pumps for quiet operation and long-term reliability.


Built with durable components and backed by strong warranties, these systems offer peace of mind through every season.


Plus, Twintech’s professional installation ensures your system is optimized for peak performance and longevity.


Twintech: Your Local Heat Pump Experts


At Twintech, we specialize in helping homeowners transition to energy-efficient heating and cooling systems that are perfect for cold climates.


Whether you’re upgrading your existing furnace or installing a brand-new heat pump, our experts will help you choose the right Amana or Panasonic model for your home and budget.

On coldest night of the year our furnace quit. At 8:40 in the morning Greg arrived and gave us a diagnosis and a recommendation. By 2:30 we had a new furnace and were warm again. Great company. Great customer service. Good reasonable price.

Twin tech team was very efficient and prompt. They provided a quote within hours of request and got the job done on time. No disruption to home function. We would highly recommend this team. Job well done.

by John from Toronto on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Our furnace bit the dust, and Twintech came out to troubleshoot and diagnose the problem within a couple of hours. Mitch was super helpful, patient, and answered all of our questions. When we decided to get the furnace replaced, the crew was over first thing the next morning and did a fantastic job. Not only did they complete the job in a few hours, but they cleaned up and respected our house as they went, and answered all of our follow-up questions. I've used Twintech for our HVAC needs in the past and will continue to do so. I'd recommend them to anyone, and it feels good to support a local, family-owned business.

Dave and the Twintech team were fabulous from day 1 and helped us through the process to identifying a new furnace and AC unit. This was our first time through this process and Dave did a thorough job explaining all the components and was very patience answering all our questions. Dave provided great insights and fair pricing.

The Twintech team did an awesome installation. Very clean and efficient. I would highly recommended their service.

by Louise in Scarborough on Twintech Heating and Cooling

We had a new Amana furnace installed by Twintech and we were very pleased with the installation. It is nice to have a warm house again.

by Private User on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Excellent job. Excellent service. Competitive price. Its rare to find a company with the knowledge and professional results we have experienced with Twintech. The clean and neat installation with attention to detail and drop sheers to respect our property is a clear indication of Twintechs high level of integrity. The 1-1/2 gas line upgrade they did for our pool 3 years ago was awesome. Can't say enough. Thank-you Twintech.

by Private User on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Twitch did a great job with the installation of our new furnace. I really appreciated their honesty and I could trust what they were telling me. Another company tried to suggest significantly more work at a greater cost claiming it was necessary to meet current building code. Twintech is very fair. All staff I meet were friendly, polite and trustworthy. I would recommend Twitch for a furnace.

by Private User on Twintech Heating and Cooling

This is a professional team that's easy to deal with. I would strongly recommend them

by hj.taggart in OSHAWA on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Very professional firm from start to finish!
They removed the old oil tank and furnace. They installed air conditioning and a new propane furnace.
Professional installation, on time and no mess.
Very pleased with their work and would highly recommend the company. Our house is three stories so they spent the time to do all the calculations to make sure we would have great performance on each floor.
Thank you again!

by susieschoeppler in Oshawa on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Upon a routine yearly maintenance, it was discovered there was a leak in the heat exchanger and a I needed a new furnace. I know nothing about these things and was completely stressed out. The company I had the maintenance plan with quoted me a huge number to rent a furnace, I just wanted to cry. Then I spoke to Dave at Twintech. He was so knowledgeable and calming, provided me a fair quote and within a few days I had an amazing crew show up to my house and install my new energy efficient furnace! I have already recommended these wonderful people at Twintech to a good friend of mine. Thank you Twintech!!

by Aaron on Twintech Heating and Cooling

We are very happy to recommend this company to everyone. Our furnace broke down on Sunday morning. We phoned them and before noon Grant the owner showed up. He worked on the furnace for about a hour not wanting to give up to fix the problem. The furnace was 17 years old. I was the one talking about replacing it. End result was the next day it was all done. On the Sunday Bob came over with heaters to warm up the house. We decided to replace the water heater at the same time. Thanks Grant for the excellent work. Thumbs up.

by Linda on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Right on time. Explained how to work the HRV in a different way so the house would not be so dry. Changed my whole house water filter for me as well. Friendly, helpful, caring service!

by Robert Rogers on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Very pleased with the professional service that TwinTech Heating and Cooling provided in replacing my furnace. I got several quotes from different service providers. Their price was excellent and they explained the features very well. We are very glad we went with TwinTech and highly recommend their services.

We were new homeowners in need of a second opinion. TwinTech Heating & Cooling were Amazing and professional. Very knowledgeable and great service all around. Recommend to anyone looking for honest and reliable services. Treated with respect and care. Thank you Greg, Mitch and Bob!

by Ruth on Twintech Heating and Cooling

TwinTech is an excellent and honest company! I called them for a second opinion after being told by another company that I needed to replace my furnace. Turns out this was not the case at all! I did not need a new furnace. TwinTech did not push to make an unnecessary sale and saved me from a huge expense. Bob and Mitch were extremely professional and above all honest! I definitely recommend TwinTech!
