Living in colder weather conditions means our chances for heating are quite limited.
You absolutely need something with a backbone to combat the serious cold.
Boilers, boilers, plus fireplaces are the norm where I live. What I don’t like is all the fuel burning. I don’t like how inefficient they are. If they get dirty, you have a fire hazard on your hands. I did some research plus realized that I desperately wanted a heat pump system. This is both heating plus cooling in a single unit. It works like a normal air conditioning machine in the summer time plus in the winter moves existing heat energy from outside to inside your home. A respected heat pump can only do this if the weather doesn’t drop below 40 degrees. My section does of course. There are high efficiency heat pumps that can handle any kind of weather plus still produce, though my section does not have that though. What my associate and I have instead is dual fuel systems or hybrid heating. This is where you take a heat pump plus pair it with a gas boiler. Most of the year the heat pump is working to give you temperature control. You get the serious energy savings, quiet operation, plus wipe air quality, once the temperatures drop below 40 degrees, the heat pump automatically switches from electric to gas. The boiler tags in plus ensures you never go without the respected amount of heat. So most of the time I save quite a bit of money, and for my section plus the serious chilly that is the best I can ask for.
