This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Yup. I'm hoping my AC and furnace die around the same time so I can just replace both with a heat pump. Not sure if it'll save much on heating prices since both nat gas and electricity are pretty cheap in my area, but it can hopefully make maintenance simpler.

A few years ago I replaced our electric furnace with a heat pump which also gave us AC. Overall the yearly bill went up because we now had AC, but winter months usage is almost half of what it was before. Only matching on the extra cold days where the backup heat kicks in.
