Harnessing America's heat pump moment
My heat pump, in Colorado, kept the house warm at -18°F last winter. Without firing up the backup resistance heating strip. I think it works.

is
more expensive to operate than the natural-gas furnace was, though).

Insulation matters as well and I’m guessing your Colorado house is far newer and better sealed than most New England homes.
