Heat Pumps & Weatherization
A heat pump is an efficient heating and cooling system that works by moving (or “pumping”) heat rather than creating it. Think of it like a refrigerator in reverse:
In the winter, it pulls heat from outside (even if it feels cold to you) and moves it indoors to warm your home.
In the summer, it removes heat from inside your home and releases it outside, making your home cooler.

Mini Splits
Mini Splits are mounted on the walls. They transfer warm or cool air to one room or areas of your home. They have an outdoor unit connected to one or more indoor units by a small bundle of cables and tubing.
SEER stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio, and it’s a simple way to measure how efficiently an air conditioner or heat pump cools your home.
SEER2 measures how much cooling a system provides compared to how much electricity it uses over an entire cooling season.
A higher SEER2 number means the system is more efficient—using less electricity to deliver the same amount of cooling.
Weatherization
Weatherization means making your home more energy-efficient and comfortable by preventing air leaks and improving insulation. Sealing up leaks and adding insulation can drastically cut energy waste and boost comfort. Think of your home like a cooler—you want a snug lid (air sealing), thick walls (insulation), and no holes (duct and attic sealing). The result is a more comfortable, cost-effective home all year round.
