The Jetsons had it all – a flying car, a robot maid, and an automated smart home. But how might they heat that home, in the future? Here are our guesses!
Heat pumps:
Heat pumps are an increasingly popular option for many homeowners seeking to reduce their monthly energy bills. Heat pumps use electricity to draw heat from the outside air and then transfer it inside, providing up to four times more efficiency than traditional gas or oil furnaces. Plus, using a heat pump doesn’t require burning fossil fuels like natural gas or propane; this helps make your home heating system much more sustainable! The Jetsons would certainly have taken advantage of this technology to keep their futuristic home nice and cozy!
Another great thing about heat pumps is the current rebate incentives! This is a rebate for up to $8,000 off a new heat pump system. These rebates are available to families that make up to 150% or less of the average income here in Raleigh. These incentives are a part of the Inflation Reduction Act that was just passed at the beginning of this year.
Programmable thermostats:
Programmable thermostats are another way the Jetsons might have kept their home warm without wasting energy. Having a programmable thermostat allows you to set your temperature on a schedule, so you don’t have to constantly adjust it throughout the day. This helps ensure you’re not using more energy than necessary and can result in significant savings on your monthly energy bills! And Weather Master has great options from Nest, Honeywell, and Lennox.
Indoor air quality:
The Jetsons would have also enjoyed improved indoor air quality with the help of modern technology. UV lamps are a great way to reduce the presence of germs and bacteria in the air, ensuring their home is always clean and healthy. More specifically, the way UV lamps work is through UV-C light, which can kill 99.9% of bacteria, germs, and other pathogens in the air.
Weather Master also offers a great product called Lennox PureAir™, which is designed to reduce indoor pollutants even further! This system uses advanced MERV16 filtration technology to clean the air more effectively than traditional filters, resulting in cleaner and healthier indoor air quality. That’s something that would have certainly been appreciated by George and Jane Jetson!
So, as you can see, there’s no need to wait for flying cars or robot maids when it comes to home heating systems – Weather Master already has access to so much futuristic technology right now! Make sure to check out Weather Master for all your home heating needs: (919) 853-7910
