Speaking of heat pumps, I installed one 2 months ago, and dropped my electricity bill for heating water from $85/mo to around $25/mo. This saved me around 69%!

- xattt 8y agoWhat’s your payback period?
- djaychela 8y agoIt's in his article - 1 year due to rebates, 2 years without.
- war1025 8y agoThe house we bought a year ago has an electric water heater, and it's a wishlist item of mine to upgrade it to a heat pump. Our electric bill is way higher here than where we lived previously, and the only thing significantly different is that we have electric hot water here. My in-laws have one and it seems to work pretty well. Plus you get a bit of A/C out of it in the summer.
