We are convening a meeting of our regional HVAC experts to discuss residential ductless heat pumps and the creation of a new measure for the installation of a 1:1 ductless heat pump in the main living area of a home without any supplemental fuels or if it has supplemental fuels that the average electrical consumption exceeds a set amount to ensure heating savings potential.  Some of the questions we discuss will be:

1. Is a minimum HSPF2 or quality requirement necessary?

2. Do we need to consider any limitations/requirements around equipment that is pre-charged (possible DIY) vs requires a refrigerant certified technician?

3. Savings

5. Screening options
