    My house has a natural gas generator. I changed back to a natural gas furnace after my last heat pump burned up. I really like my vents blowing out heat over 100 degrees Fahrenheit when it’s cold (currently at 104). I supplement with my wood fireplace sometimes. If I lived somewhere that wasn’t -10 to 20 degrees Fahrenheit over the winter I probably wouldn’t care. I also keep my house at 76. I did the heat pump thing for seven years. I don’t even really care about the utility cost at this point in my life. I want my home to be enjoyable and comfortable, it’s where I spend most of my time. The weak ass heat a heat pump puts out is a joke and doesn’t feel as warm even when the thermostat is set the same.
