Update - Unfortunately Acadia’s parent company has folded for various reasons. Some of their heat pumps have some problems and looks like someone has a fix for those problems. You can find out more information about Acadia Heat Pumps and the fix here at this link to the Bangor News. (more…)
Heat Pump Sequence of Operation - Every electrical-mechanical piece of equipment has a sequence of operation. While some manufacturers of heat pumps vary slightly with their heat pump sequence of operation the overall sequence of operation for a heat pump is the same for most manufacturers. So unless you have a special type of heat pump (they are out there – the Acadia heat pump is designed for extreme cold weather temperatures up North like Canada) the sequence of operation for your heating equipment should be very similar to what is described here. This is the basic operation of a heat pump like you will find in conventional heat pumps.
