This is such a great question, and it’s one that we get asked all the time. As new customers get acquainted with heat pump technology (thanks to legislation like the Inflation Reduction Act and other cost-saving programs), almost everyone does a quick online search to find out if a heat pump can work well during the winter.
Especially in our area where heating in Utica, NY is a huge priority during our frigid winters, some folks just opt for heating systems that run on fossil fuels because they don’t think a heat pump can handle the cold.
Not only is this further from the truth than it’s ever been, but we can prove to you right now that new heat pumps have the potential to be better for your home than a conventional furnace system–even when temperatures drop below freezing.
