Live webinar airing on December 10, 2024 at 2:00 PM EST
Sponsored by Propane Education & Research Council
Presented by Bryan Cordill

Learning Objectives:

  1. Recognize heat pump performance curves, including when heating systems need additional input/back-up from electric heat strips or hybrid partners and challenges to pure electric installations.
  2. Identify ways to hybridize by utilizing traditional dual fuel heat pump furnaces, hydronic heat pump solutions, and boiler solutions while addressing retrofitting heating oil conversions.
  3. Integrate technologies such as smart thermostats, automated systems, modeling programs and discuss design considerations for emissions, efficiency, and economics, which vary by geographic location.
  4. Discover how hybrid systems work together to optimize grid relief, including generator sizing, avoiding infrastructure upgrades, and addressing economic viability.

Webinar participants will learn about residential performance curves with residential heat pumps, including when heating systems need additional input/back-up from electric heat strips or hybrid partners when the temperatures fall below 40F. We will introduce ways to hybridize home heating systems to optimize performance and efficiency.

In addition, we will introduce and discuss incorporating technologies like smart thermostats, automated systems, modeling programs for design consideration. This course will address how emissions, efficiency, economics of home heating options will vary by geographic location.

Finally, we will address how hybrid systems work together to optimize grid relief including generator sizing, avoiding infrastructure upgrades, and increasing economic viability. Builders and homeowners can implement these options today.
