    That actually sounds bangin. My only problem is I have underground electrical service and only 100A of it. I don’t even know where to start with that. Probably have to tear up my driveway and a bunch of trees to run a new service entry.

      Ya that sounds rough. Maybe they ran higher gauge cable and skimped on the breaker?

      I know electric work can be included in the loan for whatever that’s worth.

        Well that’s good to know. Will definitely have to look into it. My (oil) boiler and DHW are old as hell. I would love to go electric before they finally fail spectacularly and I get forced into replacing with more oil.

          They are also going to upgrade our insulation to current standards. $3000 job but through them we are paying $526.44. Also we got some free power strips and shower heads and a smart thermostat upgrade.

          If this whole heat pump install goes well I’m going to be telling literally everyone in MA to contact them…
