A homeowner literally took energy efficiency into his own hands. And they share all the details.
A REDDIT user recently published a first-hand review of the upgrade on a TU36-24Wadu heat pump, in which it was highlighted how a smart electrification SWAP contributed to calming his home while increasing efficiency and possibly unlocking thousands in discounts.
“Where I am our gas provider, the Redditor offers a discount of 10,000 US dollars for two fuel installations.
After noticed signs of wear in their 15-year-old gas oven, they decided to switch to a dual fuel setup and combine a new heat pump with a Lennox gas stove. The user even chose the installation of the system and noticed the processing quality and the low noise level of the device in his review.
In addition to the creation of a quieter, more efficient setups, the upgrade also qualified it for a discount of 10,000 US dollars from their local pension provider. For this homeowner, the decision was more than a consolation-es for long-term savings and sustainability.
“It was a child's play to spend the same amount of money (not yet approved and processed after the discount) to get a brand new 96% variable speed furnace and brand new heat pump,” they added.
Thanks to the financing of the inflation reduction law, homeowners can be used when installing qualification pumps for tax cuts and discounts. While these incentives are currently available, they may not last forever. It would require an act of the congress to change IRA, but its future is uncertain. Therefore, it is a good idea to explore options, while the advantages are still active and maybe save thousands.
Heating and cooling form more than half of the average energy consumption of the US home. An outdated HLK system softens the power supply and wallet quietly. For this reason, the upgrade is to a heat pump that exceeds the traditional HLK in energy efficiency for heating and cooling – one of the more effective decisions that a homeowner can make. It is a win-win situation that saves money and at the same time has a cleaner future for the planet.
While navigating HLK selection options may feel overwhelming, there are many user-friendly tools and programs to compare systems and find reliable installers. For example, Energyage has a free tool with which potential buyers of heat pumps can compare offers from trustworthy installers. Mitsubishi can connect with trained experts in your trustworthy network so that you can install your new energy -efficient heat pump.
In the end, the Redditor seemed confident: “At the moment it was the right choice for me.”
“I have the same device,” commented one user. “In the next few months in the first full year. So far everything was fine. … it is very quiet.”
Another asked a technical question: “What filter size did you use for the indoor Airhandler?”
