The Energy Co-op's certified technicians have installed hundreds of Mitsubishi heat pumps for Vermont homeowners. Our free consultation can help determine if a heat pump is right for your home and your budget.
Why Choose a Heat Pump?
There are many reasons why our members and customers choose heat pumps:
- Lower heating fuel use: Cut your natural gas, oil or propane use by up to 70% and reduce your carbon footprint.
- Protection from future price spikes: Electricity prices are much more stable than oil and propane prices.
- Lower heating costs: If you use propane, kerosene or fuel oil to heat your home, your overall costs will go down after installing a heat pump. While your electricity costs will go up, your heating fuel costs will go down more than the increase in your electricity bill.
- Low-cost air conditioning: Heat pumps are twice as efficient as typical air conditioners, and much quieter than window units.
- Comfort: Thanks to smart controls, heat pumps keep indoor temperatures within a comfortable range summer and winter.
- Better indoor air quality: Heat pumps filter the air inside your home year-round.
Are Heat Pumps Right for Your Home?
While heat pumps are a great heating/cooling solution for most homes, there are some criteria which help determine how well a heat pump will work for you. Our service manager will ask all of these questions in your initial consultation so before you contact us, take a moment to gather this information.
- Do you have an open floor plan? Open floor plans allow the movement of air more easily than in many rooms separated by doors and walls.
- Is there a good location for the indoor blower and outdoor compressor? The best placement for heat pumps will result in the best outcomes for their use.
- Does your electrical panel have enough space? A heat pump requires an electrical service to operate.
