Wrong again, at least for much of the USA. Here, I need heat about
6 months of the year. Another 3 months, ie part of spring and fall,
I have windows open and/or don't need any heating or cooling. It's
only about 3 months where I need cooling. And as previously posted,
the heat gain in those 6 cold months is a direct positive. If the fridge
electric usage is $45 over that period, it's like getting $45 of free
electric resistance heat.

of course with a COP of 3 you could get about $135 worth of heat from
the heat pump during the winter


No you wouldn't dummy, because the condenser in your remote condensing
unit, variable space, configurable space mythical fridge design is outside.
It takes the heat from inside the fridge and pumps it *outside*. You lose
that heat all year long.

I was talking about your mythical AC







Over the 3 summer AC months, the fridge
puts out about $22 worth of heat. But because the AC has a COP of
about 3, it only cost $7 to remove it. $45 - $7, is a net gain of $38.

sure, but the fact that the AC has to remove the heat of the fridge may
indicate that had that heat not been in the house in the first place,
you might not have had to run the AC at all, which would be a net gain
of ?

Again, you need to stop embarrassing yourself. Apparently you don't
even have a fridge, because if you did, you'd know that the heat that
it puts out is very small. Fridge uses $90 worth of electricity a *year*.
That's 25 cents a day. How hot can you get a house with 25 cents worth
of electric heat? Good grief, you are so dumb.

wow, who thought that money was a unit of power
