So, i have a house in Haliburton Ontario. Historically we drop a cool $3k a year on propane.

Last year we installed a Mitsubishi hyper heat ductless system.

We used zero gas this year. Read it again, zero.

It’s lakefront, very remote, and the largest electricity bill i got was around $450 for a month and then they dropped back to something more like $250. The savings are huge, I’m no longer stressed about running out of gas…and the heat pump performed well beyond its advertised specifications. We had a few -25C days and it was humming hard, but the house stayed a comfortable 20C inside. The house is around 3000sqft and we didn’t even get the largest unit, i can’t stress enough that they actually operate better than advertised.

We would run a fire from time to time but we did that with propane too, it’s mostly ornamental.
