Greetings,

Who makes geothermal natural gas powered heat pumps? Does anyone have
any experience with an oil or natural gas powered heat pumps
(geothermal or otherwise)?

Thank you for your time and energy,

William


I had a friend who had a natural gas powered air conditioner, but I
doubt if it would pay to make it a heat pump. If you have natural gas,
just use it to heat the house in a forced air furnace.

"As I understand it" heat pumps are more than 100% efficient in suitable
climates. Since furnaces are not more than 93% efficient, why wouldn't you
use natural gas powered heat pumps?
