A community hub struggled with the high costs of heating from its oil boiler was able to save money by installing cold climate heat pumps with BlocPower

Cornerstone Baptist has been serving the Bed-Stuy area of Brooklyn since 1930. The church also owns a 2,900 square foot multifamily building as its parsonage, with seven bedrooms and one living room. The building has 6 floors, with the daycare on the first 3 floors. The building is 31,615 sq. ft. The daycare needed a lighting upgrade for the gym and struggled with high utility costs. It was heated previously with a central steam boiler system fueled by oil. The building was cooled with in-window AC units, which caused inefficient cooling and air leakage. BlocPower&#8217;s no-money-down lease option and <a href="https://www.blocpower.io/posts/what-is-an-air-source-heat-pump">ASHPs</a> came to the rescue!
<h2>The Challenges</h2>
<ul>
<li>Inefficient steam heating</li>
<li>End of lifecycle in-window AC units</li>
</ul>
The poor condition of the fossil fuel based HVAC equipment led to interruptions in church services! In-window AC units are unreliable and and inefficient way to cool a space.
<h2>The Solution</h2>
<ul>
<li>Ductless air source heat pump install in 7 bedrooms + living room</li>
<li>Upgrade existing electrical service</li>
</ul>

Building upgrades can be tough. We want to help.

All-electric highly efficient systems use the natural properties of energy to heat spaces in winter and cool spaces in summer.
The HVAC industry calls this technology “heat pumps” which have been widely used since the 1900s in air conditioners, heaters, and refrigerators. Due to innovations in system performance along with compliance requirements for new climate laws, heat pumps are the most common HVAC tech in newly built houses in many countries.

How does all-electric heat and hot water work?
