A dealer's opportunity...

Dual Fuel Installations Are a Win-Win Situation!
 
   
It’s a win for the dealer who is putting more cash in his pocket.
It’s a win for the homeowner who is saving money on the utility bills.
 

 
   
Dual fuel installations are the best of both worlds!

  • They heat a home with an electric heat pump while outdoor temperatures are within the range where the heat pump performs well.
     
  • When temperatures fall below that range, the system switches to a gas or oil furnace to give the homeowner the more efficient choice for every outdoor condition.

How Dual Fuel Can Help Make You a Winner:  

  • More Cash in your Pocket. When you sell more equipment, you make more profit!  You, the dealer, make more profit from selling a gas furnace AND a heat pump than from selling a single unit.
     
  • Happy Customers. Customers will be pleased with their increased comfort level and with their savings* on utility bills.   
                         
  • Tech Tips.
1.      Set up the dual fuel system to shut off the heat pump automatically at a certain outside temperature, so the customer doesn’t have to have to remember to do it manually.
2.      To determine what temperature is right for the installation:
♦       It’s important to make an evaluation of the home and determine the appropriate shut-off temperature for your location.
♦      While the standard changeover from heat pump to gas furnace is 32°, it may vary with location or homeowner lifestyle. Some dealers:
-         vary the changeover for houses with better insulation;
-         raise the temperature up to 40° for homeowners who are older; and lower the changeover temperature for homeowners who just don’t want to use the gas heat until absolutely necessary.
 
 

 * Actual savings varies depending on the location and size of the home, efficiency of your heating system, home insulation, air leaks, type of windows and other factors.
