 Why Should I Care?

Burning fossil fuels (oil, gas, propane, and coal) to heat our homes is destroying our planet. New York State has an aggressive plan to eliminate the use of fossil fuel for building heating and in fact, in Southern Westchester, Con Edison is no longer accepting applications for new firm natural gas customers. Eventually, oil and other types of fossil fuel will be banned in New York.

Heat Pumps are the newest technology to provide building heating and cooling that does not use fossil fuel. Heat Pumps are cleaner, cheaper, and safer for your family and the environment.
