[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cost per KWh has gone up a lot. Even though our energy usage was about the same as previous hot summers (we keep the thermostat to 76, 78 on very hot days), the bill was over $300 for a 1,200 sqft old house with a basement. We're getting quotes to replace our 21 yo HVAC and really want to go heat pump however, in past 7 years, it's always been cheaper to heat the house with gas than cool with electric, but the price for dual fuel heat-pump is about the same as HVAC. But I wonder how much more expensive it will be to run compared to gas on days between 30-55 degrees...[/quote] On dual fuel systems you can set the temp where it switches between heat pump and furnace for heating.[/quote]
