Everyone says heat pumps fail in cold weather.

The data says under-sized, under-charged systems fail. Big difference.

A $15K install ran bone dry. No tech checked the charge. That's not a heat pump problem. That's a contractor problem.

The sale was fine. The install looked fine. The breakdown was at startup.

No refrigerant weigh-in. No airflow check. No lineset verification.

Your reputation lives or dies at commissioning, not in the proposal. https://t.co/auAnflKgw4

Homeowner dropped $15K on a new HVAC system. It ran bone dry for months. No one caught it until the damage was done.

That's not an equipment failure. That's a commissioning failure.

One company in Massachusetts has done 10,000+ heat pump installs.

The market isn't coming. It's already here.

Contractors who build the right systems and processes now are going to own the next decade.

Your AC handles summer. A heat pump handles everything: cooling, heat, year-round, at 40-60% lower energy cost. Most homeowners in cold-climate states have $8,500-$14,000 in unclaimed rebates sitting there. Check yours: https://t.co/lVogCuwUW0

Most contractors want more leads.

But if you're closing 20% of what you have, doubling leads just doubles your losses.

What's your actual close rate on heat pump estimates right now?

The rebate stack is your cheapest sales tool. It costs you nothing and cuts objections in half.

Check your state's current stack before your next appointment:

Most contractors close 20-25% of heat pump leads.

The ones doing 40%+ aren't smarter. They do 3 things differently.

A thread on what separates them:

[Heatpumpnetwork @heatpumpnetwork]

What it looks like in the numbers (60 leads/month):

25% close: 15 installs x $1,000 margin = $15K/month
40% close: 24 installs x $1,500 margin = $36K/month

Same leads. Same team. $21K/month difference.

That's not a marketing problem. That's a sales process problem.

Everyone says heat pumps are a cold-weather play.

Georgia power bills are up 30-50% this summer despite a fuel rate cut.

Cooling efficiency closes deals in July. Know your state rebates: https://t.co/lVogCuwUW0

HEAR funding is still active in MA, NY, NJ, CT, ME, VT, PA and most cold-climate states. Contractors closing right now are the ones pulling up the rebate stack during the appointment. Not after. That's the difference between a yes and a call-me-back.

Rebate uncertainty is killing closes right now. Homeowners think the money is gone. In most cold-climate states, it isn't. Show them the live numbers before you leave the table: https://t.co/lVogCuwUW0

The heat pump market is growing whether contractors are ready or not.

The shops that figure out rebate stacking, cold-climate sizing, and AI-assisted follow-up in 2026 will own the next decade.

The ones that don't will wonder where their margins went.

The UK just raised heat pump grants to nearly $12,000 for homes switching off oil.

The US HEAR program goes up to $14,000, and it's still funded.

Most American homeowners have no idea it exists.

Homes with heat pumps sell for more. Most listings never mention it.

That is part of your close. Homeowner hesitates on a $17K install? Walk them through the resale math.

What's your biggest challenge closing heat pump deals right now?

5. Guessing instead of checking. Programs change monthly. Run every address through https://t.co/auAnflKgw4 before you quote. It stacks state, utility, and HEAR-aligned rebates so you're not leaving money or the close on the table.

5 rebate stacking mistakes killing your close rate right now.

Most contractors check ONE program and stop. That leaves $8K-$14K on the table per job. Thread on where the money actually is.

[Heatpumpnetwork @heatpumpnetwork]

4. Not tracking application deadlines. Rebate windows close fast and paperwork gets missed mid-install. Every stacked program needs a deadline logged the day you sign the job, not after.
