Energy Star Heating & Cooling

South River EMC members installing an Energy Star rated electric air source heat pump, dual-fuel air source heat pump, ductless mini split heat pump, or geothermal heat pump, are eligible to take advantage of the South River EMC Energy Star heat pump rebate.

With a higher seasonal energy efficiency ratio 2 rating (SEER2) and heating seasonal performance factor (HSPF) than standard models, Energy Star qualified heat pumps are about 8 percent more efficient than standard new models and 20 percent more efficient than what you may have in your home currently.

Replacing old heating and cooling equipment with an Energy Star qualified heat pump can cut annual energy bills by nearly $200. By installing an Energy Star high efficiency heat pump in a newly constructed home, contractors are providing the homeowner with a source of lower electric use and increased comfort.

Interested in making a change? Visit ElecTel Cooperative Federal Credit Union to learn more about loans for energy-efficient improvements around your home.
