  • Summary

  • Before millions of homes upgrade to a new heat pump – especially homes in low income and disadvantaged communities – multiple home health issues will need to be addressed first. For example, it would be best practice to make sure a home is properly insulated and air sealed so that their new heat pump can work most efficiently, yet if there's mold in the attic and a roof leak causing the mold, those two things need to be taken care of before the insulating and air sealing can be done, and before the insulation is upgraded.


    On Episode 2 of the Heat Pump Review Podcast, we talk to Ryan Trauley of Civic Works' Energy Programs and Center for Sustainable Careers. Civic Works is a 30 year old, Baltimore-based non-profit on the front lines of the energy transition. They work with low income homes, helping them improve their home's safety and efficiency, and helping them upgrade appliances and access grant and incentive funds to do so. They also have an important career training initiative to help people transition into solar, roofing, and other jobs critical for the energy transition.
