The weather in my local section is a year round challenge. The summers aren’t all that long, however the people I was with and I experience un-even temperatures into the high eighties as well as the humidity is downright brutal. Our winters are excessively long-lasting with below-cold conditions lingering for more than five to many months. We aren’t surprised when the temperature drops into the downside digits. We can expect around more than three feet of snow accumulation. The Spring as well as fall seasons are unpredictable, bringing a mix of rain, wind, sleet, thunderstorms, humidity as well as hail, but for the majority of the year, the people I was with and I run either the heating or the cooling system. Temperature control requires a good deal of energy as well as expense. Because of the severity of the conditions, I’ve invested into a dual fuel system. The initial setup was far more expensive than conventional heating/cooling solutions. I have a forced air, natural gas furnace partnered with an electric, air-source heat pump. The heat pump carries the majority of the workload. It provides effective cooling as well as dehumidification while I was in the warmer months. When the weather cools off, the heat pump reverses the flow of refrigerant to pull ambient heat out of the outdoor air as well as pump it indoors. By moving existing heat rather than burning fossil fuels to create new heat, the heat pump is unquestionably environmentally friendly. It doesn’t generate any carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide or greenhouse gases. There are no fumes or tepid surfaces as well as the operation is lovelyly safe, disinfect as well as energy efficient. It costs a lot less to run than the furnace. It simply can’t handle the year round workload. The furnace is powerful enough to handle un-even temperatures down to downside twenty degrees. The dual fuel system automatically switches between whichever system is most effective as well as efficient to operate at any given time.
