@obobME They dry the air by passing it through the cold coil, so the room does get colder. Our house usually gets colder on “dry” mode than by just using cool mode with a set point!
@jsnell@siracusa My “download originals” Mac is too old to run Ventura. What happens when I set up shared photo libraries on all our other devices? Any idea? Thanks!
@phillmv@Kieran We converted our heat and hot water to heat pumps in 2021 (from heating oil). Also bought a solar system large enough to power it all. Went from buying 1250 gallons to zero. Yearly energy cost savings were significant, especially after oil and electricity prices spiked this year.
@TroyInPortland@SeanDGoldstein@jglarusso Yep. We electrified our house, got a solar share, and went from burning 1250 gallons of oil per year to zero. And saved money too.
@dfinney16 @MREathome @FrankLuntz I live in Maine. We heat our house with air source heat pumps powered by solar. Saving money already, even counting the loan to finance the system.
@catculley@mathewsjh @JStein_WaPo Yep. We put in heat pumps and went from 1250 gallons of heating oil/year to zero. Powered by solar. And our 130 year old house is far from appropriately insulated.
@JoeKTheOldMan @Gaspari14902991 @phillip_metsker@ItalysMike54 Here in Maine we have 1:1 net metering. You use the extra watts you bank in the summer when you need them in the winter. I went from buying 1,250 gallons of heating oil per year to zero.
