Renovation of a multi-residential development in Lacey, Washington. Completed plans call for the renovation of a multi-residential development.

Thurston County is seeking qualified HVAC and plumbing contractors for the 2025 Energize Thurston heat pump group purchase campaign in collaboration with South Puget Sound Habitat for Humanity and the cities of Lacey, Olympia, Tumwater, and Tenino. The County anticipates the Contract will be for a maximum duration of twelve (12) months, beginning approximately on January 1, 2025, through December 31, 2025. Contract extension options will be exercised at the sole discretion of the County. During the campaign period (approximately March - June 2025), the County and partners are allocating grant funds totaling at least $1.7 million to subsidize installations of heat pumps and HPWHs for LMI households. Based on the available grant funding and the geographic scale of Energize Thurston, the project team's preliminary goals for the campaign are as follows: o Complete approximately 120-140 total HPWH installations. o Complete approximately 140-230 total heat pump installations (combination of ducted and ductless). We expect the above totals to be about equally divided between subsidized installations for LMI participants, and self-funded installations for non-income qualified participants. Energize Thurston builds on the successful Energize Olympia program, expanding its benefits to provide installations of heat pump space conditioning and heat pump water heaters (HPWH) for residents throughout the County. Our goals for the program are to educate at least 600 residents on the benefits of heat pumps via our community workshop series, and complete at least 170 heat pump installations and at least 120 HPWH installations. These totals will be divided between subsidized installations for low- to moderate-income households (administered by Habitat for Humanity) and self-funded installations available to any household.
