[quote=Anonymous]The US Department of Energy along with the state governments of Massachusetts and New York just completed a major study of residential heat pump installations. The study is at: https://e4thefuture.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Residential-ccASHP-Building-Electrification_060322.pdf The report is 156 pages, you don't have to read the whole thing, but on page 12 they have summaries of surveys of customers who replaced a different heating system with an air-source heat pump (ASHP): [quote] • Performance issues were uncommon with ASHPs and nearly all customers reported lower bills. • Customers were highly satisfied with heating and cooling performance (8.5/10 for heating and 9.0/10 for cooling). • These factors lead to an extremely high likelihood to recommend an ASHP to others (whole-home = 8.9/10 would recommend; primary w/ backup = 9.3/10)[/quote] Note that both states are quite a bit colder than DC.
