Saw a blurb about this but don’t know much about it, anyone’s thoughts on “heat pumps”?
Apparently they use electricity to bring heat from outside in to the house in winter, and draw heat out in summer?

That’s what they do a lot around here. When it’s summer they get AC, when it’s cool but not cold they get heat from the ambient air outside, when it’s freezing cold outside you get high efficiency heat, when it’s actually cold the furnace kicks in.
