[QUOTE="Chief Sapulpa, post: 3230466, member: 18458"] When I first moved to OK in 1987, I bought a home from an architect that was properly designed for a heat pump. It had 2 x 6 inch perimeter side wall studs with Corning pink insulation and blown-in attic insulation. I really liked the air-to-air heat pump. As you know those systems have electrical resistance heating coils that kick-in when the ambient air temp gets below 32 degrees. I also had a Lopi wood burning stove as a backup. If it wasn't freezing outside and I fired it up I've have to open the windows because it got so warm inside. The only thing I did not like about an all electric home was the electric water heater; lengthy recovery time. [/QUOTE]
