Wow I had no idea, thanks for sharing the source.

I saw it on there among 20+ other chocolate bars.

Maybe roommates?

The recovery time, aka first hour rating, should be in the specs for the models to find one that suits your needs. There’s more detailed research on them available as well if you’re so inclined.

You can, but not as a heat pump so you wouldn’t get all the efficiency gains and it will very often end up being more expensive to run than gas tankless in the near term.

Fascinating idea. Sounds like it will be nearly improssible to implement at scale and long term in our current world, but maybe some of the ideas could be explored further as options to support laborers and mitigate wealth hoarding. Thanks for sharing.

I agree lawns are dumb but from an environmental perspective they can be net carbon sinks, which I found surprising. Though they are still bad for other environmental reasons.

Geo heat pump install is indeed very high. But air source heat pumps (both heat pump water heaters and heat pumps for heating/cooling) don’t have that issue and have similar performance, except in extreme climates where geo outperforms.
