If you’re wondering if an electric heat pump could be the right fit for your business, here are four reasons why the answer is “yes”:
- Improved air quality
- A quieter workspace
- A more controlled environment
- A smaller carbon footprint
Through NHSaves® programs, businesses and municipalities can access expert guidance and financial incentives for energy efficiency upgrades. The NHSaves utility partners connect organizations with the right programs and energy-saving opportunities, including cleaner heating and cooling systems for existing buildings or new construction – like heat pumps.
The benefits of installing an electric heat pump system include:
- Improved air quality. These systems eliminate fumes created by other forms of heating while filtering and circulating the air in a building to create a healthier environment, which is more important than ever.
- A quieter workspace. The jarring sound of a furnace turning on or the shaking of pipes coming through an oil- or coal-fired heating system can be an unwanted disruption in the workplace. According to Better Homes BC, the noise levels in decibels of a heat pump are around 60, which is roughly the same as your refrigerator (60-70), and considerably lower than a heavy traffic (80).
- A more controlled environment. Heat pumps allow for quick and easy temperature control for both heating and cooling. That’s because a heat pump system not only brings warm air into a space to provide heat, but also takes it out and replaces it with cooler air during warmer months.
- A smaller carbon footprint. Heat pumps are an eco-friendly option for home and business heating and cooling solutions. By using electrical energy as opposed to burning fossil fuels, heat pumps are a smart way to lower carbon emissions.
By working with the NHSaves utility partners to install new heating and cooling equipment or upgrade your current system, your business can access cost-saving incentives. The utility partners can also offer technical assistance to help commercial and industrial customers identify and purchase premium energy-efficient equipment and measures.
The process is simple:
- Contact your local utility for an application and assistance, or learn more about available incentives from our New Construction and equipment rebate programs.
- We will review your proposal and estimate your incentive amount or make you an incentive offer to install certain energy-efficient equipment.
- The actual rebate amount is based on the final product installed.
- Enjoy a healthier and more efficient heating and cooling system that is better for the environment.
