Watch live: Heat pump camp gets you ready for a clean replacement for your furnace

The Salt Lake Tribune and Rocky Mountain Power are hosting a one-hour “Heat pump camp” Wednesday, April 19, at 4 p.m. in Utah Valley University’s Clarke building on the Orem campus.

Heat pumps – home heating devices that transfer heat rather than creating it from a fuel – are gaining steam as the preferred solution for staying warm without harming the planet.

But not many Utahns are up to speed on heat pump technology, which has improved in recent years and is now considered a viable option even in the coldest parts of the world.

You can watch the event live below.

The event will include representatives from HVAC installers and Rocky Mountain Power who can speak to the advantages of heat pumps and the options available. Tribune renewable energy reporter Tim Fitzpatrick will moderate the discussion, which will include questions from the audience.

This story is part of The Salt Lake Tribune’s ongoing commitment to identify solutions to Utah’s biggest challenges through the work of the Innovation Lab.
