A heat pump and method are presented which includes a compact two-compartment housing in which each compartment contains a condensor-evaporator. The heat pump which has upper and lower compartments which are vertically aligned is installed totally within the interior of a building and air from the attic area of the building is used as a supply while spent air is exhausted below the heat pump and no outside wall space is required for installation. The method of operation includes reversing the refrigerant flow and during the heating cycle condensate from the upper condensor-evaporator is directed to the lower condensor-evaporator to provide humidity to the interior of the building. |
