The problem with heat pumps in the colder states is that they only work with forced air and also don’t produce (enough) domestic hot water.

Particularly in the North east you are going to find steam or forced hot water systems fired by gas or oil (most likely #2 heating oil or possibly kerosene).

In a new build yes. A forced air with (air or ground source) heap pump should be required (although it still doesn’t really solve the DHW issue).
