“Heat pump” is just the latest buzz word. If you look up how they work its literally just a regular air conditioner with a switch to reverse the air flow.
Compressing refrigerant, allowing it to absorb thermal energy from inside the house, pumping that refrigerant to an outside coil where it releases that energy, then compressing again. This is air conditioning.
