With Oil and Gas prices at all-time highs, now is the time to switch to an efficient cold climate heat pump!

Heat pumps are heating and cooling devices that allow homeowners the flexibility of sectioning their houses into zones with separate thermostats. Homeowners can direct the heat or cool air into the specific rooms that need it, saving money while conserving energy.

Heat pumps typically use 50% less energy than traditional heating methods. Because of their compact size, they are easy to install, and offer a quick track to savings on your heating bill.
