Thank you for this video. I just moved into an all electric home and I do see the benefits in terms of air quality. However, we struggle with the heating cost due to having baseboard heaters. We are in the North East in the Pocono Mountain area.
Thanks Marion - the best solution to avoid power outages is a backup battery, but they are a little expensive. Most gas appliances such as furnaces and water heaters also do not work in a power outage, so not much difference there.
Probably 1 to 2 degrees - this is why it should be in a garage, basement or utility room or vented externally. Ours is in the basement and it can effectively de-humidify the space which is nice.

Great summary of all things electric. What do you do in case of a power outage?

How much cooler do the HPHW make a room? 1, 5 degrees?
