    I install the hmh7 as well. Pretty neat. Our power company also offers up to $1450 rebates for duel fuel set ups. Really cool!

    Good idea , since I did residential work for Kensington cooling and heating 20 year ago and like it

    Propane and Heating Oil dual fuels are great with heat pump. Natural gas doesn’t make sense as the gas companies charge a service fee each month that is 25 dollars in some places. Switch to electric water heater if you have electric heat pump.

    Another good thing about dual fuel is that if there is a power outage,the gas furnace runs on 120 volts. A small generator will enable you to have heat.

    I've recommended dual fuel for years. Love how it locks out the condenser when the temp drops too low at night. When it's high 40's to low 50's and you need heat, the HP is far more efficient, but when it gets down to the 20's at night, the furnace fills the bill.

    Nice video and thanks for the information. So I’m learning how to become a home inspector and hvac is in the course so I have a question maybe you could help me out with? So I was reading today and I came across a dual system and I had to stop and think about what it was? I honestly thought it was a split system like this let me explain I thought a dual system was a heat pump outside that’s hooked up to electricity and a furnace that is inside and fueled by gas. So thanks for showing me the difference but I wanna know how I can tell just by looking at them and examining them to tell if it’s a dual system or not? So correct me if I’m wrong but it would be a propane running or fueling the heat pump and gas fueling the furnace right?

    I worked for an HVAC/R company about 30 years ago that did alot of work for York Int.
    They actually made an a/c unit that was natural gas powered, but still wasn't convertible to propane. Interesting concept but I think they were still working the bugs out of it.
    Do they still make anything like that? Just curious

    Thx for the info. We don't have ducting so we use a low temp Mini-split. Wish we could do this.

    I have 2 dual fuel for my home and went to buy a new thermostat at home depot this evening and they only had electric heat compatible.
    Fortunately it’s failure is only the button to lower the temperature and it’s only set 1 degree too high. So to the hvac supply I shall go tomorrow.
    It was actually the install of both of those units which spurred my interest in gaining knowledge of this end of hvac. My next home I’ll be installing a boiler and hydronic baseboard. I’m not a fan of forced air heating.

      Sensi Touch 2 thermostat has a user configurable heat pump lockout temperature. The Sensi Touch 2 gets the outdoor temperature via WiFi so no need to run an outdoor temperature sensor. I purchased the Sensi Touch 2 from Amazon. Installation was a snap for my dual fuel unit.

    Is adding a HP to an electric furnace considered duel fuel?

    • @TaddyDigest
      @TaddyDigest  8 місяців тому +1

      no, because the fuel source is still electric
