Ensuring Comfort During Power Outages: Heat Pump and Generator Pairing for Upstate New York and Vermont

At Superior Co-Op HVAC, we understand the challenges homeowners in Upstate New York and Vermont face during severe weather and power outages. That’s why we proudly offer Mitsubishi Electric all-climate heat pumps paired with generators to keep your home comfortable and powered when it matters most.

Mitsubishi Electric’s case study highlights how this innovative solution ensures uninterrupted comfort during extreme weather conditions.

The Importance of Reliable HVAC During Power Outages

Winter storms and power outages are common in our region, and having a dependable HVAC system is essential. Mitsubishi Electric all-climate heat pumps are designed for efficiency and adaptability, making them perfect for pairing with generators. This combination ensures your heating and cooling system remains operational even when the grid goes down.

Why Heat Pump and Generator Pairing Works Best

Unlike conventional HVAC systems that require a large generator to power their full operation, Mitsubishi Electric heat pumps are more flexible. Homeowners can power only the essential parts of their system, making it possible to use mid-sized generators efficiently.

Real-World Success Story

David Trumbly of Mitsubishi Electric Trane HVAC US experienced firsthand the benefits of this pairing. After facing the Great Texas Freeze in 2021 and subsequent severe weather events, Trumbly invested in a mid-sized generator that powers his Mitsubishi Electric heat pump along with essential household circuits. When Hurricane Beryl hit in 2024, his home remained warm, lit, and comfortable for 18 hours despite a power outage.
