High-Efficiency Heat Pumps
Together we can help businesses of all sizes meet their sustainability goals
Better for your customers. Better for your business. Heat pumps are an energy-efficient, all-in-one solution for heating and cooling. They are a flexible solution that works for a range of customers and their buildings, from small retail shops to large facilities like hospitals and universities. Every customer you upgrade to heat pumps helps to pave the way for a more sustainable future. Current financial incentives help your customers make the initial investment.
Energy Efficiency
Heat pumps are an energy-efficient alternative to traditional HVAC systems like furnaces and air conditioners. Since they transfer heat, rather than generating it, they can be three to four times more efficient than furnaces, helping your customers lower their building's overall energy usage.
All-in-one Solution
Heat pumps are an all-in-one solution for both heating and cooling. They work to keep your customer's buildings warm during cooler months, and cool during warmer months. Buildings can use one system, rather than multiple, to maintain comfortable indoor climates year-round. As a result, heat pump systems can occupy less physical space by requiring a smaller footprint.
Flexibility
Heat pump systems can be installed with or without ductwork. This means you may be able to install heat pumps while using existing ductwork - saving you time and resources on the installation. There are several different solutions available, so you can choose the heat pump technology that works best for each customer.
Clean Solution
As more companies focus on reducing carbon emissions, it is important to look for cleaner, more sustainable solutions. Since they don't rely on fossil fuels, high-efficiency heat pumps reduce a building's greenhouse gas emissions to help your customers meet their sustainability goals.
