Gelinas HVAC : Heat Pumps

Have you heard of the new trend in heating and cooling equipment called heat pumps? Well if you haven’t read on, I will be talking about what heat pumps are and why they are fast becoming the most popular choice in heating and cooling systems. After talking with some heating professionals at Gelinas HVAC I learned that heat pumps are an all in one assembly that can replace or help your traditional heating and cooling systems.

Heat pumps are very energy efficient and a much less invasive install than other more traditional heating and cooling systems. Heat pumps move heat, instead of consuming energy to generate it. They don’t require any form of fuel consumption, they run purely off of electricity. Heat pumps can provide equivalent space heating and air conditioning at a quarter of the cost of traditional heating and cooling systems. Heat pumps are so energy efficient that they qualify for a Efficiency Maine rebate as well as qualify for an Energy Maine loan to have them installed.

You might wondering how a heat pump could produce heat in our cold Maine winters. Much like refrigerant systems, heat pumps take advantage of compressors that absorb heat energy in the air and circulate it between the indoors and outdoors. The entire heat pump unit only consists of an indoor unit called the Air Handler, and an outdoor unit which is call the heat pump. When the temperatures outside are cold, it takes the natural heat energy in the air and moves it indoors. Alternatively when it is warm outside, it reversed the process and takes the heat from inside and moves it outside.

If you’re still unsure about these new heat pumps, here are couple things you might love about the units. For one, as mentioned above, they are a far less invasive install and can be mounted on any flat surface. One feature I love about them is that they are self modulating, offering a “set it and forget it” options, keeping the interior temperature to whatever you have set it to. Another great thing about heat pumps is that the main unit is outside, providing a quieter indoor environment. Not only do they heat and cool your home or office, they also improve air quality by absorbing dust, mold and microorganisms. IF you’re still not convinced that the heat pumps are a good choice for you, contact the heat pump pros at Gelinas HVAC and they can answer all of your questions, as well as provide a free estimate.

If you’ve been struggling with getting rid of acne scare, fine lines, large pores, stretch marks or more, microneedling might be just the procedure you’ve been looking for!

Microneedling is a procedure that triggers the natural production of Collagen and Elastin in your skin, in the targeted areas. The procedure helps the skin to rebuild the supportive network underneath your skin, which is weakened by aging and exposure to the sun. The results of the microneedling procedure are improvement in skin tone, texture, firmness, which results in the reduction of visibility of scare, reduces pore size as well as helps heal stretch marks.

If you’re a little unsure about the procedure here are some things that might help it seem less intense. Microneedling does not burn the skin like other laser based treatments, it also does not dissolve your skin like chemical peels or require scraping it like dermabrasion. It very gently stimulates the skin with very small needles, the stimulation is what helps encourage the natural production of collagen. The microneedling procedure can be done to most of the areas of the body and face such as hands, lips, neck, legs, back and abdomen.

Lastly you might be wondering what you can expect after the procedure. Well good news, microneedling is procedure with very minimal down time. When you leave the office, the area of treatment will look like you’ve gotten a bad sunburn, but that should fade within a few hours.
