The chilly New England state blew past its goal to install 100,000 heat pumps by 2025. Now it's pledging to install 175,000 more by 2027.

Heat pumps sold so fast in Maine, the state just upped its target::undefined

    How does that work then… I get it for the portable ones, you stick the pipe out of the window, but last time I priced up a mini split it was more than twice the cost of a single room due to the installation work involved. There has to be ducting, they’re not magic…

      You drill a small hole and run some hoses outside from each room.

      It’s definitely more expensive than a window air conditioner, but a lot quieter and more efficient, and provides heat.
