Are you paying too much to heat your home, business, or rental property, or looking to cut your use of fossil fuels? A new generation of super-efficient electric heat pumps, suitable for northern climates, may be the answer for you. These devices provide heat and domestic hot water using 25-50% less energy than conventional systems. They are environmentally-friendly as well – 87% free of carbon emissions in Green Mountain Power territory. Heat pumps can also be combined with solar electric panels to provide 100% renewable energy.

You can learn more about the benefits of heat pumps at a free informational workshop on Monday, November 18 from 5:30 – 7:30 pm at the Marlboro College Graduate Center, 28 Vernon Street in downtown Brattleboro.
