Gradient’s Post

Big day for the window heat pump industry! 🏆 ENERGY STAR has released a test method for measuring the efficiency of window ACs in heating mode! This method defines a new metric, the Heating Energy Efficiency Ratio (HEER), which measures the seasonal efficiency of a window heat pump. 🔌 HEER is similar to the Heating Seasonal Performance Factor (HSPF2) that defines seasonal efficiency for minisplit or ducted heat pumps. This advancement means uniform and enhanced reporting of heating performance across the industry.⚡ It also means better access to incentives for our customers. 💵 We’re proud to have pioneered this product category and to have contributed to the test method through the comments we submitted. Most of all, we’re grateful to ENERGY STAR for the leadership and urgency they’ve shown in advancing their programs as the industry evolves, helping to break down barriers to the adoption of heat pumps. #energyefficiency #sustainability #hvac #innovation #partnership

We’re committed to sustainable and efficient heating and cooling solutions for all. #NYCHA #SustainableLiving #heatpump

Gradient CEO Vince Romanin had the honor of speaking on a dynamic #UrbanFutureForum panel alongside Jordan Bonomo (New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA)); Nan McKie (Woodside Houses); David Leezer; and Paul Rothman (New York City Office of Technology & Innovation). Inclusion of community voices in climate innovation discussions is vital for fostering effective and equitable solutions. A big thank you to Urban Future Lab (UFL) at NYU Tandon School of Engineering, with the support of the Wells Fargo Innovation Incubator (IN2) and National Renewable Energy Laboratory, for facilitating this essential dialogue. #ClimateInnovation #CommunityEngagement #Sustainability #SmartCities #NYCHA #heatpumps
