1d) A house has an electric resistance heater with an efficiency of 95%. The house is in a cold climate with heating requirement of 120 million BTU/year and no need for air conditioning in the summer. If a 14 costs. $10700, what heat pump with an HSPF = is the payback time in years (2 significant digits) for the heating savings compared to keeping the current resistance heater assuming electricity costs of $0.12/kWh?
