True but not everybody has access to a ground source heat pump or can even afford to have one installed, especially with short notice of an upcoming cold snap. I will advocate for heat pumps until I’m blue in the face but the current cost of entry is abhorrent
especially with short notice of an upcoming cold snap
I’ve unfortunately lived in 'berta for the past 3 years. Every winter there’s been a week in January where it’s been below -30. Two winters ago my furnace was screaming trying to keep up. The last thing this cold snap should be is a surprise to anyone who lives here.
heat pump can use 1500 watts and use it to pump 3000-4500
not everybody has access to a ground source heat pump
You see where you changed the argument from “compare the efficiency of the two” to a discussion on ‘heat pump privilege’? You see where you moved the goalposts?
A heat pump can take 1500 watts and use it to pump 3000-4500 watts of heat out of the ground loop and into your house.

Not cool. Stay on topic.
