The 2024 Heat Pumps & Homeowners Index surveyed over 1,000 US homeowners on their opinions of heat pumps, with 40% owning one, a significant increase from the previous year. The survey found that 90% of heat pump owners would recommend them to others, citing benefits such as greater energy efficiency, better heating, and cost savings. Heat pumps work by transferring heat, pushing warm air outside in summer and pulling warm air from the ground in winter. Installing a heat pump is becoming a popular choice, with many homeowners taking advantage of tax credits and rebates under the Inflation Reduction Act. METUS CEO Mark Kuntz believes that as homeowners become more aware of heat pump benefits, they will increasingly install these sustainable HVAC systems in their homes. The survey also suggests that other eco-friendly ways to lower utility bills, such as changing laundry habits and cooking on an induction stovetop, are also effective.
