Thank you for stepping forward to improve the energy efficiency of homes on the Kenai Peninsula. As part of the project for climate-smart homes, the working group focused on heat pumps is collecting information about existing heat pumps in the area.
Below is questionnaire for people already using heat pumps on the peninsula. The survey goals are to find out what types work well here and how people can get them. This info will help Homer Drawdown set up a webpage where people can find installers, product information, and locally pertinent answers to questions.
This questionnaire is a first-phase overview. You can opt to participate in the next phase of the survey. The second phase may include another questionnaire or an interview with a project volunteer. It will let you share information with the public, including further details about your home energy use and lessons you, as an early adapter, have learned that may aid others interested in adopting heat-pump technology or improving it for future users.
This survey is part of a larger effort to find out what information and infrastructure are currently available, or need to be made available, to help Kenai Peninsula people decide if they want heat pumps and get them if they do.
