Stephanie Edwards+FollowWould You Trust a Heat Battery at Home?Europe just leveled up home heat pumps by turning them into thermal batteries using salt hydrates and recycled aluminum. Now, you can store heat when electricity is cheap and use it when rates spike. It’s a game-changer for energy efficiency and sustainability, but does storing that much heat in your house raise new safety or tech concerns? Would you adopt this innovation or wait for more data? #Tech #ThermalBattery #HeatPump00Share
John Fitzgerald+FollowWhy My HVAC Guy Ditched Gas for a Heat PumpEver wondered if those new mini split heat pumps are worth it? This HVAC pro just gave his whole house a Mr Cool upgrade and says it’s a game changer—super quiet (like, cat purring quiet), energy bills down, and everything’s tucked out of sight.
