I can’t wait to see him buy two!
He bought 7.
I am a simple bird; I see a Technology Connections video and I click.
I in fact have already replaced my fossil fuel heating system with a heat pump, as of last year. When I called to fire my oil delivery company – who last quoted me $4.14 per gallon for the first 150 gallons, and then “variable market rate” after that – the CSR told me in dire tones that if I installed a heat pump “my electric would go up real high.”
And it did. About $27 per month. Which is about $273 less per month than I was paying these dickheads before, in the coldest couple of months of winter. My mini-split system also cools the house, and does it way better and more efficiently than the selection of rattletrap window units I used to have. And this is in my poorly insulated, ramshackle 1920’s redneck wind tunnel of a house. As I improve the insulation in here over time I expect matters to improve even more. Climate benefits notwithstanding, just by doing this I cut like $1400 of yearly expenses between burning oil and running the air conditioners.
