Key assumptions and data include:
Gas Furnace:
- 233 Kilowatt hour (kWh) savings/year
- 6 British Therman Units (MBtu) savings/year
- 1,063 pounds of carbon dioxide (CO2) savings/year
- Energy savings is based on a weighted average of electricity and natural gas consumption.
- 18 years is the average product lifespan. This is used to calculate any 'lifetime savings' information displayed
Gas Boiler:
- 4 British Therman Units (MBtu) savings/year
- 469 pounds of carbon dioxide (CO2) savings/year
- 20 years is the average product lifespan. This is used to calculate any 'lifetime savings' information displayed
Air Source Heat Pump:
- 997 Kilowatt hour (kWh) savings/year
- 1,535 pounds of carbon dioxide (CO2) savings/year
- 12 years is the average product lifespan. This is used to calculate any 'lifetime savings' information displayed
GeoThermal Heat Pump:
- 6,658 Kilowatt hour (kWh) savings/year
- 10,253 pounds of carbon dioxide (CO2) savings/year
- Savings are based on a comparison of a slip air-source heat pump and an ENERGY STAR® geothermal heat pump
- 15 years is the average product lifespan. This is used to calculate any 'lifetime savings' information displayed
