A thread on my home’s heat pump performance during the recent Colorado cold spell. There will be data and #Chartz and grid context! But the TL;DR – My system performed great! But did use lots of power. #heatpump (1/n)
Context: I gone the full #ElectrifyEverything! My 2400 sq ft townhouse has a Mitsubishi heat pump with resistance backup running in a ducted system. My @span_io electric panel monitors everything. See previous thread. (2/n)
OK Folks – I promised my detailed review of my #ElectrifyEverything experience, including a review of, and electricity data from, my @span electric panel. If you are a real #ElectrifyEverything dork, this thread is for you! 1/x
Context: Last summer, I bought a Colorado Front Range townhouse, expecting to electrify it. The house is 3 levels and ~2400 sq ft. It had old appliances: ducted HVAC, A/C, gas furnace, gas hot water heater. I also replaced my ICE car with an EV. 2/x
