We actually have to compare with heat pumps. They provide 3KW of heat per 1KW of AC electricity consumed.

- Retric 11y agoDepends on outside temperature, if it's cold enough heat pumps become less efficient than simple resistance heating. The transition point where they become useless is generally around 0F which is not all that cold. Granted if you live in a warm area then it's generally not an issue.
