I suspect you’re comparing an airconditioner against a resistive heating unit.
- flightster 3y agoYes with heat pumps you're 100% correct but right now most of the US north does not use heat pumps to heat their house while the vast majority of the south US does use A/C which is way better per degree of temperature change than say heating oil which the vast majority of New England still uses.
