New York is a unique and beautiful place to live, where residents can fully experience each of the four seasons. But it can also be expensive—especially in the cooler months. According to the EIA, heating is the largest contributor to energy usage in a home, taking up nearly half of the average home’s energy consumption. Whether heating with oil, gas, or electricity, finding a way to reduce energy costs is important for many homeowners in the area.
At Green Team LI, we specialize in providing high-efficiency heating systems throughout Nassau, Suffolk and Queens and offer reliable solutions to save money on heating costs—without having to sacrifice your home comfort.
How Home Performance Impacts Your Heating System
Before installing a new heating system in your home, it’s important to make sure you minimize heat loss and air leakage first. Proper insulation and air sealing can help you achieve this goal in many ways, including:
- Efficient Operation – Improving your home’s building envelope lowers how much energy your heating system uses, which reduces heating costs and even extends your system’s lifespan.
- Effective Heating – Insulation & air sealing help your home maintain consistent indoor temperatures, improving your comfort and reducing strain on your system.
- Optimal System Sizing – With more protection from the outside elements, your home will have a lower heating load, which can result in smaller equipment and further savings!

Air Source Heat Pump Installation
Heat pumps offer an all-electric alternative to home heating by moving heat rather than creating it via fossil fuel combustion. They use significantly less energy compared to traditional heating systems and can also be used to cool & dehumidify your home throughout the summer.
Because of their efficiency and electric operation, several heat pump tax credits and rebates are available to make installation more affordable. Green Team LI installs ducted and ductless mini split heat pumps and can also help you navigate incentive programs to maximize your savings.
Find the Right Heating System with an Energy Audit
The first step a homeowner should take before making any essential home upgrades is to have a home energy audit. This allows a professional team to view your whole-home system and collect data to identify where efficiency improvements will have the greatest impact.
Green Team LI will perform a free energy audit of your home at the start of any project. After analyzing the data collected, we’ll provide a detailed report that includes recommendations on how you can improve various aspects of your home, enabling you to get more from every energy dollar you spend.
We’ll also inform you of what tax credits and rebates these services are eligible for and give you guidance on how to claim them. Because these incentives can help you upgrade your home at little to no cost, Green Team LI stays up to date with what’s currently available and is a participating contractor in many local programs.
Extend Your Heating System’s Lifespan with Annual Maintenance
Once your new heating system is installed, the best way to keep it operating at peak efficiency and ensure the longest lifespan is with annual heating maintenance. Green Team LI can help you stay on the right side of heating system maintenance with our comprehensive service agreements. We offer comprehensive tune-ups, special discounts, and more.
