Cool Down Launches Heat Shift, a New Whole-Home Heating System That Cuts Fuel Use 70% or More
New product helps homeowners with wood stoves, cold additions, or uneven winter heating use the heat they already have—delivering whole-home comfort and savings as energy prices rise
Cool Down, an HVAC climate tech company known for its energy-smart cooling system, today announced the launch of Heat Shift, a new whole-home heating product that captures warmth from existing heat sources—wood stoves, pellet stoves, fireplaces, mini-splits, and south-facing windows—and circulates it throughout the home using existing ductwork.
Cool Down is already known for reducing summer air conditioning use by up to 67% by leveraging the stable temperatures of basements. Heat Shift extends that energy-smart approach to winter, cutting heating fuel consumption by 50-90% by using heat sources homeowners already have rather than running the furnace, boiler, or heat pump.
Heat Shift is built for homeowners dealing with:
Rising heating bills, with payback in 3-5 years on most installations.
A wood stove or pellet stove that only heats one room, while the rest of the house stays cold and the furnace runs all winter.
A cold addition or uneven heating across the house, where Heat Shift can pull warmth from a heated part of the home and deliver it to an underheated room without expensive HVAC modifications.
"Energy prices aren't going down. Homeowners who install Heat Shift this spring or summer will head into next heating season cutting their fuel use 50-90%—no new furnace, no rip-and-replace, just smarter use of the heat sources already in their home," said Damien Semel-DeFeo, founder of Cool Down.
Heat Shift works with oil, propane, natural gas, electric, and heat pump systems. The unit monitors the source room temperature, automatically opens a damper to circulate that heat through the home, and shuts off the primary heating system whenever the source room is warm enough. When the source cools down, the furnace, boiler, or heat pump kicks back on. The homeowner uses the thermostat exactly as always. Estimated fuel savings display in real time on the control unit.
Heat Shift is a practical solution as electricity, propane, and heating oil prices continue to rise across the country. Together with Cool Down's flagship cooling system, homeowners can achieve year-round energy savings without replacing their existing HVAC equipment.
Professional installation is currently available across the Capital Region NY, Hudson Valley, Western MA, Western CT, Northern NJ, and Bennington County, VT. Control units ship nationwide for use with a homeowner's preferred HVAC contractor or for a DIY installation.
