[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree that it's not black and white... In what circumstances do you think electrification doesn't make sense? Curious..[/quote] If your heating load is much larger than your cooling load (which is common), you have to oversize it for cooling which means you don't get the same efficiency in the summer. On the other hand if you do dual fuel then you can right size it for cooling and use the gas furnace as supplemental heat in the winter. If you have an old leaky house with bad ductwork, gas furnaces can heat the home more effectively than heat pumps. If you have a high velocity system with small, flexible ducts, heat pumps will not work well. [/quote]
