I installed a ductless heat pump in a rental house I own. It saved me a bunch of money and the house now has air conditioning for the week every year that it is needed.
What to do next winter...

I would want to have another heat source if I were you, I would research what would be the cheapest in your area.
Wow, that's incredible, the delivery charge alone here in Maine is at least 6c/kWh. Were you including the delivery or just the electric cost?

So technically my electricity cost is 9.99 cents/kwh. However, all the charges and fees are also tied to kw/hrs, so literally double the cost per kwh. Use $45 in electricity, you get a $90 bill. Use $100 in electricity, get a $200 bill.

Yup...
I don't look at just the cost per KWH.
I look at how many KWH I used, and how much I wrote the check for.
THAT is the cost of a KWH.... in my opinion, of course..
