#2wayAC
I know that the prices charged for HVAC seem insane sometimes, but the more I've dug into what's behind those prices to have a well run and sustainable company, the less room there is for reducing them.

Thanks Santa! 🎅

Now I can finally monitor the energy consumption of my #2WayAC 24x7, it’s my childhood dream!

I’ve fought rebranding heat pumps for years, but now that they’re politicized, it’s time for #2wayAC!

It was a fun day getting our 1948 Spartan camper in place, soon to be an Airbnb.

It has an induction cooktop, instant electric water heater, and soon we’ll get the two mini split #2wayAC units in place. All electric of course.

I caught a mini split on our 1948 camper in defrost this morning.

Quick explanation.

Great 50 year old #heatpump ad!

Don't heat like a caveman!

This is good mainstream messaging, we need much more like this, not early adopter or green focused.

Wow! It's seriously cold in Whitehorse! This is the worst city I've checked for heat pump suitability.

Still good 90% of the year though!

What's your city look like?

If you're worried about climate change, pull for natural refrigerants (ironically propane is a very good one) so that it doesn't matter if it leaks.

Then power with clean electricity.

Cooling is going to be a requirement for much of the earth.

A #2wayAC aka heat pump heats too.

This right here is why furnaces in California are asinine, they should only be #2wayAC aka #heatpump.

Although y'all in CA need to get your rates under control!

Go try your city and post it in the thread! www.natethehousewhisperer.com/how-much-of-....

@shreyassudhakar.com and @energysmartwv.bsky.social A homeowner asked to replace their "cold-air heat pump" with a "hot+cold heat pump".

It gave me #2wayAC vibes.

I was thrilled to see heat pumps referred to as 2-way AC in a recent Electrify San Mateo community feedback meeting! While it doesn't need to replace "heat pump" in discourse, it's a great way to explain the technology to those unfamiliar with it. #2WayAC

This is a cool graph. I suspect (hope!) the adoption curve for heat pumps will look somewhat similar. Furnace + 1-Way AC falling, a brief blip of dual fuel/hybrid heat pumps, before all-electric heat pumps become the norm. #2WayAC 🔌💡🧪
Not only do BEV skyrocket in Denmark, but PHEV are doing exactly what we always knew PHEV would be doing eventually, which is die off eventually. ICE will have fallen to below 20% within the next year and BEV will have risen to 80% by then. (2/4)

That's great Nate! Go team #2wayAC

I love seeing Air Conditioner to Heat Pump Replacement (AC2HP) reach codes being adopted across California! Nobody needs to install a crippled 1-Way AC when #2WayAC exists

A few of us are trying to get the name “2 way AC” to stick as an alternate term for heat pumps, to catch the people that are unaware but want to replace their AC. www.2wayac.com #2WayAC

It’s not a perfect install, but I was happy to help my neighbor Pastor Jackie figure out what to do for ductwork on this package heat pump and hook up the thermostat with some help from my friends. I’m not actually a technician lol

Good news!

We only missed 449,972 chances to decarbonize homes in October! In summer it's over a half a million a month!

Yes, this is dark humor. AC sales (orange bars) are highest in summer. Blue is total of ACs and heat pumps.

Is it time to rebrand heat pumps? I think so.

Wrote about this in the latest issue of Heat Pumped.

www.heatpumped.org/p/what-s-in-...

2025 can be the year of the #2WayAC
Heat Pumps have a branding problem, but ACs don't
Rebranding Heat Pumps to 2-Way ACs will help increase adoption and awareness among homeowners. It's a term that's starting to catch on, and one we can start using today.

I really like helping clients figure out tough projects like this one.

This one was especially fun because I got to go on site as spray foam was installed, and the client is delightful!

5/5
