5 Things to Consider Before Buying a Heat Pump
(Family Features) If you’re like many homeowners who are considering ways to achieve greater energy efficiency, cut costs long term and reduce use of fossil fuels, replacing your gas furnace with an electricpowered heat pump may be part of the solution.
Like an air conditioner, a heat pump is installed outside the home and can cool it, but heat pumps are also capable of providing heat. In fact, many homeowners can’t tell the difference between a traditional heat pump and an air conditioner because they look alike and have similar hook-ups. However, in cooler months, a heat pump pulls heat from the cold outdoor air and transfers it indoors, and similarly, in warmer months, it pulls heat out of indoor air to cool your home.
When considering purchasing a heat pump for your home, it’s important to evaluate several factors to ensure you make an informed decision. Here are five key things to consider from the experts at Carrier, a leader in high-technology heating, air-conditioning and refrigeration solutions:
1. Energy Efficiency
Heat pumps are rated by their Heating Seasonal Factor, which is a measure of a heat pump’s
overall energy efficiency during the heating season; their Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER2); and their Energy Efficiency Ratio. These ratings are like miles per gallon for a car: the higher the rating, the more energy-efficient the system is, which can lead to lower utility bills. For example, standard SEER2 ratings today are around 14.3 (and some older units are as low as 8), but units with a SEER2 rating above 16 have lower energy costs, which translates into higher energy savings.
2. Climate Suitability
Heat pumps are most efficient in areas with moderate temperate ranges. If you live in an area with extreme cold, you may need a heat pump designed for low temperatures such as Carrier’s Infinity Heat Pump with Greenspeed Intelligence, which operates at temperatures as low as minus 15 degrees. Or you can combine a heat pump with a gas furnace in colder climates for energy-efficient heating on all but the coldest days.
3. Cost and Incentives
While heat pumps can be more expensive initially, their efficiency can lead to long-term savings. Research available incentives, rebates and tax credits that can help offset some of the upfront cost. Many governments, manufacturers and
utility companies also offer financial incentives for installing energyefficient systems. For example, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 provides several tax credits, up to $2,000 for qualified heat pumps, and is available through 2032.
4. Size and Capacity
It’s essential to ensure the heat pump is the appropriate size for your home. An undersized unit may run virtually nonstop to try and maintain a comfortable temperature inside your home while an oversized unit will cycle on and off frequently, reducing efficiency and lifespan. A professional Carrier dealer can help you determine the correct size based on your home’s heating and cooling needs.
5. Installation and Maintenance
Professional and proper installation are crucial for optimal performance. Choose a reputable, experienced HVAC contractor to install your heat pump. The average lifespan of a wellmaintained heat pump is 15 years. However, with varying conditions and homeowner habits, it could live well beyond that.
Understand the heat pump’s maintenance needs, including regular filter changes, coil cleaning and annual inspections to ensure longevity and efficiency. Without
regular cleaning and maintenance, dirty coils can cause your system to work harder to keep up with demand, decreasing efficiency and increasing stress on the fans, motors and system components. Dirty, clogged air filters can restrict airflow, resulting in reduced comfort, higher utility bills and, in extreme cases, a total shutdown of the system.
By carefully considering these factors, you can choose a heat pump that best meets your home’s needs and provides efficient, reliable heating and cooling. Learn more at Carrier.com.

3 Ways to Use Propane in Your Home
Backup Power
the power grid.
Consider these ways to integrate the clean energy source into your home from the experts at the Propane Education & Research Council:
Home Heating
Whether you use a furnace, fireplace or boiler to heat your home, propane can power your heating source in any climate. Propane-powered heating sources are highly efficient, typically cost less overall due to their longer expected lifespans and emit fewer greenhouse gases than electric or wood- or oil-burning alternatives.
When power from the electric grid is interrupted, a propane-powered generator can provide supplemental power in as little as 10 seconds to keep vital systems like smoke and fire detection, refrigeration, heating and cooling, Wi-Fi and other health and safety equipment operational for several days and nights. Plus, propane doesn’t degrade over time,
unlike diesel or gasoline, making it an ideal standby power fuel.
Appliances
Because of their high performance and energy efficiency, propanepowered appliances such as cooking ranges and stoves, clothes dryers and tankless water heaters can increase the value of a home and decrease the strain on the
electrical grid. Generating fewer greenhouse gas emissions than their electric counterparts, propanepowered appliances can heat and cool quicker, reduce standby losses and dry clothing faster, reducing energy usage and cost.

Your Guide to Replacing Home Siding
1. Board and batten. The use of board and batten vertical siding originated hundreds of years ago as a practical solution for covering the spaces between the boards on the exterior of a home or barn. Today, it portrays a rustic farmhouse style and handmade quality, but its strong vertical lines have modern appeal that can enhance many architectural styles, from popular Craftsman to timeless Victorian. The good news? New materials are blending this classic look with the modern engineering of high-performance super polymer vinyl siding to offer the best of both worlds. ProVia’s board and batten siding, for example, is low maintenance with a built-in weather barrier so you never have to paint, stain or caulk your home’s exterior. It’s also available in a range of colors, helping you achieve a one-of-a-kind look for your home.
2. Shake and staggered shingle. Featured in American homebuilding since the 1600s, there are few other cladding options as distinctive and traditional as cedar shake and staggered shingle siding. If you love this look but are concerned about maintaining this kind of siding, you’re in luck. These days, certain manufacturers are preserving the authenticity of this look using engineered vinyl materials. The result? Greater durability and far superior moisture resistance.
3. Insulated siding. If you’d like additional protection from extreme temperatures, impacts and even noises for greater peace of mind and comfort, insulated siding may be the right choice for you. Showcasing an authentic cedar woodgrain texture, CedarMAX insulated vinyl siding from ProVia is an example of siding providing a combination of beauty, durability and energy efficiency. It combines rigid foam EPS insulation with the manufacturer’s Super Polymer vinyl siding. Not only does the added foam
insulation make this one of the most energy-efficient exterior claddings on the market, it may help reduce outside noise transmission by as much as 39%, according to a study conducted by a third-party test laboratory.
When you begin the process of shopping for house siding, it can feel overwhelming to identify which styles or colors you might want for your home. Get inspired by how other homeowners have styled their siding by visiting provia.com/siding/gallery.
Thankfully, it’s possible to make home exterior updates that add to both the beauty and functionality of your home. When replacing home siding, do a little research to get the style and color you want using materials that keep your home, and your household, safe and comfortable.
5 Things You Need To Know Before Hiring A Roofing Contractor
1. NEVER give your roofing contractor a dime until 100%job completion. Everyone knows someone that has been burned by a contractor!
2. ALWAYS confirm that your roofing contractor has workman’s compensation insurance that covers roofing work. If you skip this step and someone gets injured then you may lose everything, you could even lose your home.
3. NEVER negotiate with your roofer, instead demand their best and final no haggle price right up front. This will guarantee that you always get their best price and avoid their pricing schemes/games.
4. ALWAYS get a lien waiver from your roofer before paying for the project. If you skip this step then you may be legally obligated to pay for the roof TWICE! That’s crazy but true.
5. ALWAYS confirm in writing that the labor/workmanship warranty from your roofer lasts as long as the manufacturer’s material warranty. What good is a lifetime roof if it only comes with a 2 year or 5 year workmanship warranty? If they do not have faith in the quality of their workmanship then how are you supposed to have faith in their work?
