HEAT PUMP ENERGY
SAVINGS
Heat pumps save more on operating costs during the
heating cycle than heat/cool models. The table below
shows that the higher i nitial cost of purchasing a heat
pump is quickly made up in lower operating costs.
Use the map t o identify the climate zone’s designated
number. Reading down t he left-- hand column of the
table, select the cost/kWh rate in this zone that most
closely approximates your local rate. The
approximated savings and payback period is found at
the intersection of your zone/rate line and the desired
Bt u h C oo l i n g C apaci t y co l um n . Exact s avi n g s are
determ i n ed by l i fes t y l e, local elect ri cal rates , and
climatic conditions.
