More Info

• Apartment includes newer stove, refrigerator, air conditioning and large kitchen table

HVAC — Heating & Air Conditioning

As part of the 2018 renovation, expensive & dirty central oil heat was replaced with brand new Mitsubishi Hyper-Heat™ premium high efficiency heat pumps (air conditioning + heating).

** This is energy-efficient technology — NOT “electric heat” or “electric baseboard.”

Tenant pays own (inexpensive) HVAC costs, customized to the temperature and humidity you find comfortable.

Here’s a video on how heat pumps work:

Another video, showing the Mitsubishi Hyper-Heat unit in this apartment:

• “Heat pumps could help address climate change and save you money. Here’s how they work.” by MIT Tech Review (2023)
• Dept. of Energy heat pump info page: https://www.energy.gov/energysaver/heat-pump-systems/ductless-mini-split-heat-pumps
• Green Building Advisor article: https://www.greenbuildingadvisor.com/article/how-to-buy-a-ductless-minisplit

Concerned about it getting too cold outside? These worked perfectly during winter 2018–19, when temperatures were below -5° several days in a row.

• Comes with remote controls (see picture below).
• Can be scheduled so it’s not wasting energy when you’re asleep or not around.
