Susan McFee was an amazing resource. Is there a way to get questions to her?

Did you have air conditioning before?

How is your electric bill?

Once you put in the unit, is there a monthly cost or what do you need to maintain it?

I have a heat pump that is a different set up than the mini-split Joy showed. I had to replace a more traditional central air unit and opted for a heat pump. My heat pump is one large unit that sits outdoors, with compressors in the attic. The entire house is heated/cooled on one thermostat. This unit works best when the outdoor temps are >40, so it’s not a terrific winter solution for heat, but I do use it in fall and spring rather than my steam heat.

My Honda Hybrid is from 2003, and I still get 50 plus/minus on highway. But it is not an EV. It does not plug in to electrical source. I’,m confused by Rich seeming to conflate EV and hybrid? What Toyota model?

Lent doesn’t have to be punishing!

Eversource also has a renewable poser option.

What do you do for a plug-in if you don’t have a garage?

I bet the new rector might like to see some new longer term thinking/plans about HVAC, :) and energy usage towards stewardship.
