New heat pump water heaters are making it easier and more affordable for Bay Area households to transition to cleaner, healthier homes.

In a new Marin Independent Journal op-ed, Co-Chair of Sustainable Mill Valley Al Grumet explains that many new heat pump water heaters now operate on a standard 120-volt outlet, making installation easier and reducing costs for many households. Combined with local rebates and incentives—including programs available to Marin residents—the transition is more affordable than many people realize.

The standards also include broad exemptions for households facing technical, electrical, or financial barriers, ensuring no one is left behind while the Bay Area moves toward cleaner air and healthier communities.

Read the full op-ed—and urge Bay Area Air District leaders to keep these life-saving clean air standards moving forward.
