Ready to Electrify?
When you’re ready to replace your water heater, we’ll install an efficient heat pump water heater, significantly reducing your energy costs.
Whole House Approach
At Building Efficiency, we keep your entire home in mind at every stage of electrification. We begin by accessing your electrical infrastructure to ensure your home is electrification ready. This may include installing a electric panel, service upgrade or a circuit-sharing device to maximize your panel’s capacity. We boost your home’s performance through insulation and air sealing upgrades. Then, we assess your heating and cooling needs and recommend the ideal heat pump or mini-split for your needs.
We’ll also provide plans and help with converting your appliances to electric, including heat pump water heaters, heat pump dryers, and induction stoves. Through our network, we’ll provide a path to solar or solar and battery installation.
Electric Heat Pump Water Heaters
Modern heat pump water heaters are highly efficient. Heat from the air is extracted and sent to a heat exchanger, where it is transferred to the water in the tank. This process makes heat pump water heaters three to four times more efficient than traditional water heaters.
Electrified Heating & Cooling
All-electric heating and cooling technology, like heat pumps and ductless mini-splits, transfer heat instead of creating it. When heat builds up on a summer day, a heat pump efficiently transfers it back outdoors leaving your home cooler and more comfortable. In the winter when your living space has cooled down, heat pumps transfer heat from outside air to indoors to warm the air in your home.
