A heartfelt thank you to the Town of Trumbull for applying for the Small Cities Grant in 2016 in order to get heat pumps for 186 units in Stern Village and for the State of Connecticut for approving it!
Over the course of several months, I conducted resident meetings to discuss the benefits of the ductless heat pumps to improve residents’ quality of life and savings on electric bills. I have answered many questions. Experts have attended Board Meetings to discuss how efficient the heat pumps are.
The Facts
-We are not taking out the old electric baseboard heat.
-If residents do not want to use the Heat Pumps to reduce their heating bills we can turn it off and they will remain on the old electric baseboard heat.
-If residents do not want air-conditioning at a minimal cost we will not turn on the Heat Pump system.
Residents have the freedom to choose.
Installation of Heat Pumps Has Begun – Residents are Raving about their Heat Pumps!
-Ductless heat pumps are small and mounted high above your living space delivering even heating and cooling throughout.
-Heat pumps use a small, exterior condenser to transfer heat from the outside air directly to the inside unit, offering a number of tangible benefits
Money savings – High on the list of benefits is the money residents will save. Residents will see significant savings on their UI bills.
Live in Comfort- Ductless heat pumps provide heating and air conditioning to your space giving you comfort all year round with one unit. No need for window air conditioners.
Better air quality – Ductless heat pumps have multiple filters and deliver air directly from the outdoors to your room, avoiding allergens. Those with allergies and breathing issues will also enjoy this benefit
Lowers the carbon footprint – A ductless heat pump reduces your carbon footprint through the significant reduction in energy usage. Each system meets UI guidelines and reduces energy usage by 60% over traditional electric options.
The heat pump control is easy to use. Set it and Forget it! If residents need to increase or lower the temperature, point it and use the arrows.
Energy efficiency, cost savings, and positive environmental impact are all benefits of ductless heat pumps.
