Heat Pump Tariff Changes in Effect 3/6/2023

Dual fuel heat pump technology combines the efficient heating and cooling performance that you get from a heat pump with the consistent heating capacity of a gas furnace. In summer, the heat pump works like a high-efficiency central air conditioner. In spring, fall and winter, it provides cost-effective and efficient heating, while the gas furnace takes over only when needed during the coldest months.

See the website (UT) for rebates and program requirements. For HSPF 2 and SEER 2 crosswalk requirements, see the table below

Help your customers make the move to a ductless heat pump and earn cash back on that purchase. It’s a simple upgrade that’s far more efficient than baseboards and wall heaters. They can enjoy savings of up to 50% on heating and cooling costs, and with no invasive ductwork, installation is easy and affordable (see the website).

The table below also outlines the specifications for HSPF 2 and SEER 2 crosswalk requirements.

Heat Pump Marketing Materials Available

Click here for information you can use to help your customers promote heat pumps. Questions? The marketing materials will provide helpful information.

Messages include:

  • Customers usually don’t give much thought to their HVAC system – until it acts up or stops working. Help your customers plan ahead and prepare to upgrade to a highly efficient system like a heat pump.
  • If your customers are concerned about the air quality in their area but don’t know what they can do, you can help! Explain how they can make an impact by changing to clean, efficient HVAC equipment such as heat pump technology.

Another message option is to explain how switching to a heat pump can reduce their carbon footprint and improve indoor and outdoor air quality.
