Abstract
A homeowner needs to replace an HVAC system. What replacement equipment best meets the multiple goals of affordability, energy efficiency, and comfort? Is the upfront cost of a highly efficient variable-speed heat pump in the homeowner's best interest? Or is the homeowner better off installing a more efficient version of the current equipment?
