HIGHER EFFICIENCY, LOWER BILLS

If your current system is more than a decade old, chances are it is operating well below today’s energy-efficiency standards and driving up your monthly utility costs, particularly during peak cooling season. Upgrading to a modern electric heat pump provides both heating and cooling in a single system. Unlike traditional gas furnaces, heat pumps don’t burn fuel to produce heat. Put simply, they move warm air where it’s needed. That means fewer emissions and lower energy bills. Trane’s 20 TruComfort™ Variable Speed Heat Pump with WeatherGuard is built for year-round efficiency. It offers quiet, consistent comfort with advanced features designed to handle the unusual demands of an Arizona winter.

SMART THERMOSTATS ARE MORE THAN JUST CONVENIENCE

When paired with an energy efficient HVAC system, a smart thermostat adds energy-saving intelligence to your home. Devices such as the Trane® LINK UX360 can optimize your system in the winter to keep rooms comfortable without overworking the unit. In the sweltering summer months, it can help reduce your energy costs during peak-rate hours.

THE WINDOW FOR TAX CREDITS IS CLOSING

The Energy Efficient Home Improvement Tax Credit, established by the Inflation Reduction Act, offers a tax credit for eligible HVAC upgrades. Homeowners can receive a 30% credit rate, with an annual cap of $1,200 for HVAC products that meet the highest non-advanced Consortium for Energy Efficiency tier, and up to $3,200 in federal tax credits by installing qualifying high-efficiency HVAC equipment, such as certain heat pumps that meet specific federal efficiency standards. To receive the credit though, installations must be completed before December 31, 2025, so now is the perfect time to upgrade.

USE THE COOLER MONTHS TO PLAN AHEAD

Without the urgency of summer heat, winter is the best time to look at your home’s HVAC system. Here’s what Phoenix homeowners should do now:

• With demand lower, it’s the perfect time to compare quotes and other money-saving incentives.
• Older homes in the Valley can benefit from resealing or ductwork cleaning, so consider a ductwork inspection.
• There are plenty of off-season financing offers you can take advantage of.

BE SMART. STAY COMFORTABLE

Now is the perfect opportunity to prepare for the long summer ahead. By upgrading your HVAC system now, you’ll save money and make your future much more comfortable.
