Why Everyone Gets Heat Pumps Wrong. Go to https://ground.news/undecided for an innovative way to stay fully informed on tech, energy, the climate and more. Save 40% on the Ground News unlimited access Vantage plan with my link. If you believe half of what you hear about heat pumps, you'd think they're a $20,000 scam that stops working the second it gets cold outside. But here's what the skeptics don't mention: modern heat pumps work in temperatures down to -26°C (that's -15°F), and those "reliability" complaints? They usually trace back to installation problems, which are shockingly common. The truth is, heat pumps are some of the most efficient climate control tools money can buy. Their financial and environmental benefits make them worth considering. Today I want to pull apart the biggest myths around heat pumps, so you can tell if they actually make sense for your home, in your climate, with your budget.
