Is one of your home appliances on its last legs? Before you rush to replace it with another gas-powered model, take a moment to explore the electric alternatives. Go Electric Colorado is here to help you make an informed decision that could enhance your comfort, save you money, and reduce your carbon footprint. Use our comparison tool below to see how electric options stack up against traditional gas appliances. Select an appliance below to start your comparison.
Comfort: Heat pumps offer superior temperature control and consistent heating throughout your home, eliminating the hot and cold spots often experienced with gas furnaces. Plus, they provide both heating and cooling in one system, simplifying your home’s climate control.
Efficiency: Heat pumps are incredibly efficient, often achieving 300% efficiency or more by moving heat rather than generating it. In contrast, even the most advanced gas furnaces top out at about 98% efficiency.
Cost Savings: There are strong incentives from government (local, State, Federal) and utilities which can bring the cost of a heat pump to be equal or less than the cost of other equipment. Those switching from propane, fuel oil and resistance heating are likely to see meaningful reductions in their utility bills. While there may not be as much savings switching from natural gas, over time electricity prices are less volatile and are expected to rise at slower rates than natural gas.
Go Electric Colorado can also guide you on insulation, air sealing and solar which combined with a heat pump can significantly reduce your home’s energy bills.
Safety: Heat pumps eliminate the risks associated with gas leaks and carbon monoxide poisoning that come with gas furnaces. They also improve indoor air quality by not producing combustion byproducts, creating a healthier home environment for you and your family.
