Quick Facts: Gas Vs. Heat Pumps

Gas Furnace or Boiler

  • Cost: Gas is sometimes sold at a lower rate to electricity, but requires more energy to run.

  • Comfort & Control: A furnace or boiler may have fluctuations between cycles, which are challenging to control by zone.

Dual Fuel System

  • Cost: Dual fuel systems (a.k.a heat pumps with back-up furnaces/boilers) allows homeowners to plan usage around peak prices for gas and electricity, leading to maximum savings.

  • Comfort & Control: Combines the efficiency of a heat pump with the reliability of a furnace or boiler for extreme cold.

Heat Pump

  • Cost: Heat pumps are highly efficient because they transfer heat, not generate it. This means they use less energy compared to a gas furnace or boiler.

  • Comfort & Control: Today’s technologically advanced heat pumps provide more consistent, even heat compared to gas-powered fluctuating systems.
