The Barre City Energy Committee, in partnership with Efficiency Vermont, invites Central Vermont residents to a workshop: “Do Cold Climate Heat Pumps Make Sense for You?” The workshop is scheduled for Wednesday, January 18th at the Aldrich Public Library (Milne Room) starting at 5:30.

Cold climate heat pumps have rapidly emerged as a promising technology for Vermont. Come to this workshop to learn about heat pump options for both hot water and space heating to see if they make sense for your home. This workshop will cover the latest in heat pump technologies, the relative economics of using heat pumps versus other fuel sources, successful case studies, and resources to help you. The workshop will be led by Matt Sargent, an Energy Consultant with Efficiency Vermont. Heat pump distributors will be on-site to share information. A light dinner will be provided starting at 5:30 pm, with the workshop scheduled for 6:00-7:30 pm.

The workshop is part of the 2016-2017 Barre Energy Workshop Series for Central Vermonters, including a workshop scheduled for February 22nd on modern wood heating. This workshop series is brought to you by Barre Saves Energy Initiative, a joint effort of the Barre Partnership, City of Barre, Barre Area Development Corporation, Central Vermont Chamber of Commerce, Barre City Energy Committee and Efficiency Vermont.
