Tis’ the Season! It’s that special time of year when we hope to find ourselves settled in on the couch, sipping hot cocoa, maybe web-browsing for the perfect gift or watching our favorite holiday movies…It’s a picture perfect scene, until: A chill starts to creep in. The thermostat shows an eight degree drop. What’s going on?

We get this question a lot: “Do heat pumps really work in New England homes?” The short answer? Yes, they do. In fact, there are cold-climate heat pumps designed specifically for regions like ours, capable of efficiently heating homes even during a Massachusetts winter. They even work well further north in Maine. Systems like the Mitsubishi Hyper Heat are engineered to deliver reliable comfort year-round. And with options like built-in heat strips for additional warmth, they can perform even better when the temperature drops.
