There’s definitely a pretty good argument to be made there too, I won’t deny that. You are right, the summers are getting longer drier and gnarlier, and the freezes are getting worse too. We often have to deal with a lot of smoke later in the summer too. I for sure took a real close look at it a couple years ago, just as those grants and stuff came online, as we were doing our AC at the time.

The reality for my household, is that in current state and location we just don’t use enough hydro to justify the cost versus the benefits. Now does that change in the future, as my kids get older and the climate continues to change? Hey, maybe, never say never. Also I think if you are a household in SW Ontario, or anywhere near the lakes, absolutely I’d be taking a very very close and serious look at one. I just couldn’t get the math to math at the moment, in my location.
