From the Blog

Three of this week's listings name heat pumps directly, and that's no accident. With the federal 25C tax credit gone after December 2025, demand now runs on the IRA rebate programs (up to $8,000 through HEEHRA), state electrification mandates, and plain gas-versus-electric economics. We break down what heat pump techs do differently, the certification path, and which states are hiring.
