Save the Environment & Lower Heating & Cooling Costs
Saving on heating and air conditioning can have a great impact on your pocketbook (especially over time) and on lowering your carbon footprint.
Rewiring America says weatherizing your home and adding a heat pump when your current HVAC system is nearing the end of its life will reduce your use of fossil fuels and save you money.
Check out the rebates! There are federal, state and local rebates.
Weatherizing your home can save you hundreds on your energy bills by reducing the amount of energy needed to keep your home comfortable. Weatherization projects include air sealing, insulation, and upgrades to doors and windows.
There are also some rebates for weatherizing your home!
The best way to heat your home in the winter and cool your home in the summer is with a heat pump. Heat pumps are more energy efficient than other heating and cooling systems like gas furnaces, oil heat, and central air.
Homeowners switching from inefficient HVAC systems that run on fuel oil, propane, or traditional electric resistance (like baseboard heat or electric furnaces) can save around $1,000 per year.
Heat pumps both heat and cool your home! They are 3X more efficient than most fossil-fuel heating systems.
WHY DO IT?
Homes with heat pumps use less energy and save money on their utility bills.
WHEN TO DO IT?
When your current HVAC unit is nearing end of life (usually about 15 years).
WHO IS THIS FOR? Both Homeowners & Renters!
Whole-home heat pump systems for homeowners; portable and window units for renters.
