Thanks, Cooper! I did talk with QuitCarbon a while back and refer to your organization in a couple other posts. We ended up working with Electrify My Home. Both great companies!

Trane Commercial has thermal energy storage - I wish there were more options for residential thermal energy storage. Take heat out of the house (AC) and store it in the hot tub. Recover heat from plumbing to heat the house in winter.

Cool! This local company provides a good product that combines a space and water heat pump heater and stores energy (only for itself, not for the whole house) in the water heater tank: https://www.harvest-thermal.com. It's expensive, though. I hope more options come online soon. We're way behind many Asian and European countries on this (and on many other things, but that's for another time).

Congrats on being one step

closer to your electrification goal! And the hot tub must be lovely. 😀

We have solar panels on our home, and Eversource sends us a check every month!

Thanks! And that is great, Linda! We still have to pay about $12 a month just to be connected to the grid ...
