Myths around heat pumps are widespread.

Not because they are true but because they are deliberately spread by bad faith actors.

Thanks to the Economist for this article and for quoting my @carbonbrief.org heat pump myth buster.

Don't think I've ever encountered a "myth about heat pumps" in the wild. Where can I go to see one?

I had a heat pump in Maryland. When it was cold it was constantly in "emergency heat" mode. My brother had one in Delaware & they had space heaters in every room.

I may one day forgive Jim Varney for the part he played in this misinformation campaign, but I will never forget.

What sort of ratio of heat out vs energy used are they getting now? Because when I last looked at them gas was still cheaper per kWh of heat.
