Making Heat Pumps the First Choice for Minnesota Homes

The MN ASHP Collaborative is making it easier for Minnesotans to choose better heating and cooling. By promoting high-efficiency air source heat pumps, we help homeowners and contractors find options that are comfortable, fuel flexible, and often more affordable, especially when it’s time to replace an aging air conditioner. Together, we’re working to make heat pumps the go-to choice in Minnesota by 2035.

How heat pumps work

Heat pumps work by moving heat. They cool your home by moving heat outside, just like an air conditioner. However, unlike an air conditioner, heat pumps can also warm your home by moving heat inside. This process is very energy efficient. Even in cold weather, heat pumps can provide efficient and comfortable heating to your home.
