Energy Savings & Rebates
Heating and cooling systems with high efficiency ratings often include rebates and incentives. Learn about the new high-efficiency technology and ratings.
Save Big With High-Efficiency Heating And Cooling Systems
Did you know that today’s modern furnaces and air conditioners are “intelligent”, and as a result they reduce energy consumption and lower your utility bills by up to 40%? When it comes to heating and cooling options, you can choose between “conventional” or “high-efficiency”. New furnaces and air conditioners have energy savings ratings, and these high-efficiency systems qualify for additional incentives. Rebates are also available for alternative heating and cooling systems, like a hybrid (heat pump) system.
Electronically Commutated Motors – ECM
Did you know that a simple, low-cost upgrade of the blower motor in your furnace can save 25% in annual electrical costs? Older HVAC systems typically have motors that are far less efficient (and noisier) than today’s electronically commutated motors, or ECMs.
Heating And Cooling System Ratings Include:
• Furnaces and boilers: Natural gas or propane or oil furnaces and boilers with 95% AFUE • Split system air conditioner rated 16 SEER / 13 EER • Split system heat pump rated 15 SEER / 12.5 EER / 8.5 HSPF • Air conditioners rated 14 SEER / 12 EER • Heat pumps rated 14 SEER / 12 EER / 8 HSPF • Advanced main air circulating fans
IMPORTANT NOTE: Incentive programs and rebates vary in amounts and change by the season.

Who would have thought that within 2 hours of calling these guys I would be sitting in a warm living room again after my furnace stopped working this afternoon. Super happy with my experience today.

He even pointed out some things he noticed not technically related to the ducts, such as some asbestos on an old wood-burning stove that I had thought was just old tape and recent mouse activity in the basement.
