Cold-climate air-source heat pumps (ccASHP), as described by Schoenbauer et al. (2016), refer to a technology that delivers appropriate high-efficiency space heating in homes that rely on delivered fuels or electricity. As the pumps are cold-climate, their technology allows heat to be transferred to homes which register exterior temperatures that are below zero Fahrenheit while ensuring acceptable efficiency and capacity. Regarding their operation, Wu et al. (2013) reveal that air-source heat pumps (ASHP) utilize low-grade energy in ambient air as their energy source due to its unlimited supply. Schoenbauer et al. (2016) add that the pumps utilize a refrigeration system which is based on a compression-cycle to transfer heat from one part of the residential area to another, allowing the home to be heated during low-temperature winter conditions and cooled during summer. The researchers also observe that in heating the room, the pump draws in ambient air from outside and absorbs the heat from within it. The air is further passed through the heat exchanger before being delivered into the room. On the contrary, however, during summer, the pump removes heat from the indoor air and transfers outside, similar to air conditioning systems
