Efficient Heating with Dual-Fuel System: Heat Pump and Gas Furnace Combo
Dual fuel heat pumps combine the strengths of electric heat pumps and gas furnaces into one efficient, hybrid heating and cooling system. The heat pump handles milder temps, the furnace kicks in for colder winter weather. This maximizes comfort and savings. Dual fuel systems may cost more upfront than a furnace but provide better value than buying separate units. Rebates also help offset the investment. For homeowners wanting both efficiency and reliability in their HVAC system, a properly installed dual fuel heat pump is worth considering.
