Does anyone have recommends for book or website I can use to educate myself on options for upgrading a postwar bungalow from a gas furnace + AC to heat pump(s)? The book I have is OK for basic principles but I’m looking for more what units are available, cost, installation pitfalls.

I have asthma which is aggravated by the current system blowing dust around summer + winter. Primary motivation is comfort, better energy efficiency would be bonus points. #HVAC #HeatPump #minisplit #renovation

A paperback book on the subject of heat pumps. Author S. Ziegler.

Saving $$ with #cleanenergy

NY needs to replace a lot of #fossilgas lines b/c of age and wear.
Very expensive to do, raises gas bills.

May be cheaper to electrify neighborhoods, even including:
- all new heating and cooling
- weatherization of bldgs

Plus: no gas leaks & better air quality & health 🙌

Pressure to pass state law to facilitate this #electrification

Final tally on #cleanenergy win:

Americans bought 32% more clean air-source heat pumps than fossil gas furnaces in 2024.

Biggest margin ever!

20 year trend, aka much bigger than 🍊

Got big bump from Biden's #IRA tax credits, also normal trend of how new tech is adopted.

Heat pumps for housing are major part of states' climate plans

@jayemar I found out what interface my AC uses by taking the proprietary controller the unit came with, then looking up the FCC ID written on its case, and downloading the product manual provided by that FCC website. The protocol was mentioned there.

The interface was a USB port, though the protocol was UART as documented in that #ESPHome page I've linked to. Just today I started looking at a Midea AC unit I have in another room. It has a 5-pin connector that I am yet to learn about.
