Why Choose a Heat Pump?

Heat pumps are quickly becoming the preferred choice for homeowners looking to improve comfort, energy efficiency, and long-term savings. Here’s why:

• Energy Efficiency: Heat pumps transfer heat rather than generate it, making them significantly more energy-efficient than traditional HVAC systems.
• All-in-One Solution: One system provides both heating and cooling, simplifying your home’s HVAC setup.
• Lower Utility Bills: Because they use less electricity, heat pumps can help you reduce your monthly energy costs.
• Environmentally Friendly: They reduce your home’s carbon footprint by relying on ambient heat instead of burning fuel.
• Quiet Operation: Modern heat pumps run quietly, making your indoor environment more peaceful.

Whether you’re replacing an old system or exploring a greener HVAC option, heat pumps are an excellent investment for comfort and sustainability.

The Importance of Maintaining Your Heat Pumps

Heat pumps are unique systems that work year-round to heat and cool your home. Unlike systems that perform one function, heat pumps reverse their operation depending on the season—extracting heat from your home in summer and pulling heat from the outdoor air in winter.

Because of their dual-purpose functionality, they often work harder than single-mode systems. That’s why routine maintenance is crucial to keep them efficient and reliable.

Your system may need repairs if you notice:

• Strange noises like clanging coming from your system
• Higher than normal electric bills
• Insufficient hot or cold air
• Weak air flow
• Increased humidity in your home

How to Choose the Right Heat Pump

Not all heat pumps are created equal. We’ll help you select the best model based on:

• Your home’s square footage and insulation
• The regional climate in St. Cloud
• Desired energy efficiency (SEER and HSPF ratings)
• Available incentives and rebates
• Your budget

Inflation Reduction Act Incentive Details

Recent legislation changes mean your HVAC home improvements may offer you more than energy savings. The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), signed in August 2022, dedicates nearly $370 billion to climate and energy programs, including tax credits and rebate programs intended to offer incentives for energy-efficient purchases.
The IRA includes an extension of the Non-Business Energy Property Tax Credit (Internal Revenue Code Section 25C), which provides a tax credit to homeowners when installing certain residential heating and cooling equipment. This credit has been significantly enhanced and renamed as the Energy-Efficient Home Improvement Tax Credit beginning January 1, 2023.

• Through 12/31/2022 – Homeowners who install equipment before December 31st, 2022 that meets energy efficiency requirements may be eligible for tax credits from $50 to $300, or in some cases, 10 percent of the installed costs (up to a $500 maximum).
• Starting 01/01/2023 through 12/31/2032 –The Energy Efficient Home Improvement Tax Credit provides homeowners up to 30% of installation costs for qualified expenditures, with an annual maximum of $1,200. Qualified air conditioners and furnaces can receive up to $600 each. Qualified heat pumps have a separate aggregate yearly limit allowing the taxpayer to claim up to $2,000. Thus, the maximum total yearly 25C credit amount may be up to $3,200.

Please note: Specific information regarding the qualified systems and how to claim Home Improvement Tax Credits for 2023 and beyond is forthcoming pending the release of application instruction from the IRS.
