My husband and I met with Charlotte Weigel in the spring of 2024.  She taught us about installing heat pumps.  We have 3 fairly new air conditioners and were reluctant to get rid of them.  But 2 of the airconditioners were original to to house along with a oil furnace that is getting to the end of it's life.  Charlotte had the idea that we could switch the wiring so that the newer airconditioners would be hooked up to the areas of the house that we don't use as much. There are only 2 of us in the house.  And we could install the new heat pumps up to the zones that we live in the most.

She gave us a list of contractors that are known to install heat pumps in the area.  She told us to call 3 for quotes.  We ended up calling 4 because it was hard to get timely quotes from the companies.  We also did the energy assessment. 

We just had the heat pumps installed the end of August 2024.  We still have the oil furnace for the zones that we don't use much. And the heat pumps have a back up if it gets super cold. The company did a great job. And I'm so thankful to Charlotte for holding our hands through this process.
