Hot air rises, how will a high wall heat pump heat my room?
 
Hot air does rise, but it rises slowly and only when it loses its velocity. A heat pump will push hot air downward. And because it is hot air, it will rise slowly and it will heat the room in this manner. By this method the room will have an even temperature on the floor and ceiling.

How often should you clean a heat pump?
 
It depends on the home and how dusty it is. If you have old furniture and live in an old home, you might need to clean it more often than if you were living in a new place with new furniture. A good recommendation is checking the filters from time to time to see if they need cleaning, but generally they should be clean every three months.  The vast majority of filters these days are washable, so take care when washing them.  Use warm water with little soup to clean the filter, dry them before putting them back. The outdoor unit can not be cleaned by a regular methods and it should be done by a professional. But you can make sure there are not leaves or external items blocking it. Keeping the filters clean can increase the performance of the heat pump and save in electricity consumption.

High-wall or floor mount heat pump?

Depending on the life style and how the room is going to be used,  both hi wall and floor mount will provide similar results.A 6 kilowatt high wall heat pump will heat the room as good as a 6Kw floor one. The only difference between them is the method in which they work. A floor one is delivering heat at the floor level which is nice in a small living area, and gives the feeling of heat being radiated. A high wall heat pump will do the same, but it is important for it to be located in a good position.

How noisy is a heat pump?
 
There are two parts of a heat pump, the indoor unit and the outdoor unit. The outdoor unit has become quieter over the years as new technologies try to make then silent. But it is important to avoid installing the outdoor unit facing a bedroom. Generally the outdoor unit is not that loud and is not a sound problem. The indoor unit is extremely quite these days; they generate sound that is comparable to running a computer. There is the sound of the air flow, but as the room becomes warm, the sound becomes less and less as the air flow slows down. Some brands concentrate on noise level while others focus on efficiency, so one must strike a balance between the two.

Is it best to leave a heat pump running?
 
It is hard to answer this question, as there are many variables to consider and also there are conflicting opinions on which is the best approach. Generally, if you leave a heat pump on 24 hours in a poorly insulated home it will cost a lot of money. Running a heat pump 24 hours a day will use 30% to 50% more electricity versus just turning it on for the time it is needed. Another option is to run it through the night at minimum temperature (at 16C), that way it will consume minimal electricity and will keep the place warm. Or, you can save electricity by starting the heat pump before you get out of bed to let it pre-heat the place and then turn it off when you leave. A good heat pump can heat a room very quickly.
Otherwise, unless you are at home all day and would like to keep it warm all day, ther eis little need to keep it running 24 hours a day.

How much does it cost to run a heat pump?
 
There isn’t a clear answer to this question, as there are many variables that need to be accounted for.
The electrical consumption for the heat pump itself varies depending on the temperature outside and inside. Typically a heat pump runs around 300% to 400% efficient.  Other factors include: what temperature is the heat pump set on, how well is the home insulated and how much humidity is outside. The more humid it is, the harder the heat pump needs to work to keep warm. But generally a small to medium heat pump will consume around NZ $1 to $1.5 a day in Dunedin. A larger heat pump might cost up to NZ $3.

Can I put a heat pump in a kitchen?

Many places have a kitchen and a living area open on each other; if not you still can put a heat pump in a kitchen but need to position it correctly. To install a heat pump in a kitchen, one must consider locating the heat pump as far away from appliances (oven and cook top). This is because we do not want the heat pump to draw in the smell and moisture. Other than that, installing a heat pump in a kitchen is the same as installing it in a living area.
