Natural gas furnaces emit heat that is twenty degrees hotter than a heat pump.  That means your home will warm up faster, requiring less energy and resulting in lower energy bills. 

Natural gas water heaters are 230% more efficient than electric models. They cost about 50% less to operate each year and provide a seemingly endless supply of hot water.

Fast Recovery Means You'll Never Have To Take A Cold Shower.

Water heating is the second largest energy expense in your home. In addition, aside from cooking, it is the one appliance that is used consistently throughout the year, making cost-savings and convenience even more important.

Most natural gas water heating units can recover more than a full tank in one hour; while many electric units only recover 20 to 25 gallons per hour. In addition, natural gas water heaters cost about 1/2 as much to operate annually as electric models.
