Looking to get some anecdotal experiences from someone living in a cold climate using a heat pump as their main source of heat.

    I had one when I lived in Maryland, it worked well. It kept the apartment warm and doubled as an air conditioner in the summer. I had always heard growing up that they never made it warm enough but that was not my experience.

      A furnace will put out 120F air easy. Heat pumps, especially back then on a cold day, might only hit 90F at a higher velocity and that’s uncomfortable to some people, especially with longer run times. Modern inverter units are more capable.

        I dont think most people would notice the difference between a home heated with a furnace and a home heated with a heat pump, aside from the electricity savings.
