After years of dealing with a noisy, inefficient furnace, we finally switched to a heat pump last spring. The house feels more comfortable because it runs longer cycles at a lower speed, so the temperature is steadier. Our electric bill went up a bit in winter, but we saved a ton on summer air conditioning because the heat pump handles both heating and cooling. The installation was a two-day job, and the rebates from our utility covered almost half the cost. I wish we'd done it sooner.
