Watching the changes happening in the Washington State energy code is fascinating. The idea that electric baseboard heat for the most simple heating application is going away… well it’s amazing.
Heat pumps are so much more efficient at heating. My house is heated and cooled with a VRF heat pump and it’s great. The idea of heating at higher efficiency just makes so much sense.
I removed a Lennox Pulse furnace, originally installed in 2004, with a GREE Solar VRF heat pump. No more burning gas to heat the house. The new WA State code will demand new thinking like this.
