SUMMARY:Heat Pump Water Heaters - Cost effective carbon action
DESCRIPTION:Join Electrify Now\, Community Energy Project\, Solar Oregon\, Passive House Northwest\, New Buildings Institute\, Zero Energy Project\, Renewable Hydrogen Alliance and The Environmental Center as we explore why Heat Pump Water Heaters are becoming the new standard and how to take advantage of these amazing devices in your home. \nWater heaters are the second biggest energy users in most homes and will account for 1.5 – 2.5 Tons of carbon emissions each year. Heat Pump Water Heaters use a fraction of the energy required by standard electric or gas powered models. In most homes this translates to hundreds of dollars of savings on utility bills each year. Our panel will discuss why these products are so efficient\, why they avoid carbon emissions\, what to know about installing one in your home\, and how to take advantage of the money saving promotions that are available now.
