THE heat pump the movement is officially here to stay. Do-it-all HVAC system outsells gas furnaces once againas reported by Canary Media.

Better yet, the government will give households up to $10,000 go futuristic technology through the Inflation Reduction Act.

Yet these benefits may not be available for long. President-elect Donald Trump has declared it “will cancel all unspent funds under the misnamed name Inflation Reduction Act“So while it is too early to predict an end date, the benefits may not last very long.
So what do you need to know before joining millions of Americans making the change?

First of all, the “heat pump nickname is misleading. It’s because heat pumps in fact, they cool and heat homes by transferring heat, rather than generating it. This means that they works more like a refrigerator than conventional heating and cooling units.

In cold weather, they use electricity to transfer heat from outside to inside, using heat from the ground, water or outside air to warm your home. In summer, heat pumps exhaust hot air from your home to the outside. All this means more efficiency than conventional HVAC units and significantly outperform.

A report from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory found heat pumps could reduce energy consumption in most households by up to 50%. This would translate into annual savings in a middle range from $300 to $650.

Another advantage is that heat pumps do not burn dirty energy like gas furnaces, which reduces the amount of carbon pollution go into the air outside or even inside.

These factors likely explain why sales of heat pumps have exceeded those of gas boilers for the second year in a row, as Canary Media noted. The gap is also widening between the two.

This momentum is expected to continue to build as more consumers realize the need to unlock the savings available through Inflation Reduction Act.
