Winning Website #5: Free Heat Pump (https://freeheatpump.com/)

 

We know, something with the word "free" in it sounds almost too good to be true - but trust us, there's some real-world incentives and options for having a new heat pump installed in your home at a heavily discounted price - and in some cases, even completely free!

It's all related to recent government incentives and tax breaks designed to promote the adoption and installation of more energy-efficient home heating and cooling solutions.

HLM was able to help Free Heat Pump create a website dedicated to spreading the word about this opportunity and aid an environmentally-friendly cause - all while winning an award in the process.

  • The Client: Free Heat Pump
  • The Industry: Home Services/HVAC

Fun fact about this client - not only did HLM receive a design award for this campaign, but we were also cited in a UAB study for another advertising effort surrounding a UAB breast cancer survivor recruitment effort. Check out the study here.
