flag Maine residents are switching to heat pumps for lower bills and emissions, but proper installation and use are key to performance.

flag Maine residents are adopting heat pumps to cut fossil fuel use and lower heating costs, with some saving up to 40% on electricity, especially when paired with solar panels. flag While heat pumps support state climate goals, performance has sometimes fallen short due to improper installation, poor weatherization, or homeowners turning them off in cold weather, reducing efficiency by up to 40%. flag Newer models perform well in temperatures as low as -22°F, and experts stress proper sizing, installation, and consistent thermostat use for best results. flag Rebates remain available through Efficiency Maine, though federal incentives end in 2025.
