Energy efficiency is one of the main reasons for apartment builders installing heat pumps in their new complexes.
Other factors are:
- OPPD's incentive program for builders
- OPPD's lower winter rates for tenants or building owners
- Escalating cost of traditional heating fuels, such as natural gas
- OPPD verification that the heat pumps are performing to specifications
 |
OPPD offers cash incentives for builders who install heat pumps in multi-family dwellings. In addition, OPPD's lower winter electric rate is an advantage to residents of apartments with heat pumps.
|
Another big plus for builders is OPPD's customer service, which provides a personalized approach for each individual builder, geared to the specific heating-and-cooling needs of each complex.
OPPD also provides informative brochures regarding the operation of a heat pump. After the installation is complete, a specialist from OPPD inspects and verifies that each heat pump unit is working properly.
Some builders and developers that choose heat pumps:
- Broadmoor Development
- Seldin Company
- Schwab Realty
- Vann Realty
- Hogan Realty
- Landmark Homes
- Todd Heistand (NuStyle Development)
