What struck me in that report was that those homes with ducted airconditioning used twice the AC energy than those with split-systems. LIkely this is because split systems put the cool where you want it most and are generally newer more efficient systems... and also probably smaller
No real point here, but these split units, especially if they are combined AC/heatpumps are surprisingly easy to install in older homes and the heatputmp side can drastically reduce the energy used by the existing fossil fuel heating system. Also they are inhereently "zoned" which gives you local zone control too. bob On Sun, Jul 29, 2018 at 1:31 AM, Lee Hart via EV <[email protected]> wrote: > > Awesome via EV wrote: > >> http://www.lowcarbonlivingcrc.com.au/sites/all/files/publica > tions_file_attachments/statistical_analysis_of_driving_ > factors_of_residential_energy_demand_-_final.pdf > > > I'm sorry; but I'm still skeptical.
