Wow! It's seriously cold in Whitehorse! This is the worst city I've checked for heat pump suitability.

Still good 90% of the year though!

What's your city look like?

This right here is why furnaces in California are asinine, they should only be #2wayAC aka #heatpump.

Although y'all in CA need to get your rates under control!

I dare you to come up with a more cringe rebrand for heat pumps #2WayAC

I really like helping clients figure out tough projects like this one.

This one was especially fun because I got to go on site as spray foam was installed, and the client is delightful!

I caught a mini split on our 1948 camper in defrost this morning.

Quick explanation.

We do heavily themed vacation rentals, this is shaping up to be our most outlandish one, and the one I get to do my way - note the spray foam to get this old coal camp house sealed up to where I can do the next round of air sealing. It'll get a #2wayAC aka #heatpump.

I love seeing Air Conditioner to Heat Pump Replacement (AC2HP) reach codes being adopted across California! Nobody needs to install a crippled 1-Way AC when #2WayAC exists

Great 50 year old #heatpump ad!

Don't heat like a caveman!

This is good mainstream messaging, we need much more like this, not early adopter or green focused.

Heat Pumps have a branding problem, but ACs don't Rebranding Heat Pumps to 2-Way ACs will help increase adoption and awareness among homeowners. It's a term that's starting to catch on, and one we can start using today.

I have written about how heat pump is a bad name a lot before! www.heatpumped.org/p/what-s-in-... #2WayAC

#2wayAC!

This is the lead slide in Christopher Higgins' deck for Friday's Hybrid Heating call (I owe him a beer for this joke...)

Vancouver "stole" the AC to heat pump idea I helped propose and made it so every new AC is a #2wayAC aka #heatpump. Every home HVAC system is a #hybrid or all electric system.

And of course it’s all electric. #heatpump #2wayAC #energysky

If you're worried about climate change, pull for natural refrigerants (ironically propane is a very good one) so that it doesn't matter if it leaks.

Then power with clean electricity.

Cooling is going to be a requirement for much of the earth.

A #2wayAC aka heat pump heats too.

If your grandma can’t tell you what a heat pump is, then it’s a bad name. www.heatpumped.org/p/what-s-in-... #2WayAC

#2wayAC - nice and simple, also implies that one way ACs are dumb. Which they are.

Making Every Air Conditioner a 2-Way AC Nate Adams discusses transforming traditional ACs into 2-Way Heat Pumps, exploring home electrification strategies that benefit homeowners, contractors, and the environment.

The difference between a 1-Way AC and a heat pump is just one valve, about $20 in parts! So it’s important to install a heat pump aka #2WayAC from the start, to do both. Can’t convert an existing 1-way AC to a HP.

I'd love to see all one way ACs become #2wayAC - even with a furnace that leads to a 50-90% reduction in gas use in most homes. Very little change in the installs.

That's great Nate! Go team #2wayAC
