Legal
Terms of service
Plain terms for using the site. The core point: our numbers are modelled estimates for research, not quotes, and not a substitute for a professional assessment.
Acceptance
By using HeatPumpAtlasUSA you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
What the site provides
HeatPumpAtlasUSA publishes cost models, comparisons, rebate summaries and a switching calculator for US residential heat pumps. All figures are modelled estimates built on public data sources. They are intended to help you understand the economics and interrogate contractor quotes, not to replace a load calculation, a site assessment or a firm bid from a licensed contractor.
No professional advice
Nothing on the site is engineering, financial, legal or tax advice. Equipment sizing, electrical work and rebate eligibility must be confirmed by qualified professionals and the relevant programs for your specific situation.
Estimates are not quotes
Installed cost ranges, operating costs, payback periods and rebate amounts are approximations. Real prices vary by contractor, home condition and timing, and can differ substantially from any modelled figure. Rebate programs change and fund out during the year. Always verify current amounts and eligibility with the administering program before making a decision or signing a contract.
Third-party links and referrals
The site links to external sources and may refer you to installers or partners. We do not control third-party sites or services and are not responsible for their content, availability, pricing or conduct. Any transaction you enter with a third party is between you and that party.
Intellectual property
The site's original text, data compilations and design are owned by HeatPumpAtlasUSA unless otherwise noted. You may share and cite our pages with attribution and a link. You may not scrape, republish at scale or resell the content without permission. Third-party data and images retain their own licenses and attribution.
Limitation of liability
The site is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis without warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, HeatPumpAtlasUSA is not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of, or reliance on, the information, estimates or referrals provided here. You use the site and its outputs at your own discretion.
Changes
We may update these terms and will revise the date above. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised terms.
