    The best part about my heat pump water heater is I have a massive “refrigerator” in my house. It keeps the room it’s in about 45°F year round, which is great for storing wine and root vegetables, and storing beverages in there means they get cold in the fridge a lot faster.

      Great for those on the south. Not as great for those of us that have to heat our homes, meaning a furnace or another heat pump needs to make up that heat.

      Not that they are bad, mind you, they are quite good, just another part of the economic equation. Makes it more of a home run where you are cooling most of the year anyway.
