Re: New heating system should I get rid of coal?

This is the heat pump I am currently installing in my sons house
https://ashp.neep.org/#!/product/56536/7/25000/// ... ngle-zone/
Using the calculator on this site my heating would cost $1400 in electric. Nyseg does charge about .12 for electric.
(Bill Total - Basic Service Charge) / Kw = .114 on my current bill
The above senville unit is actually more efficient (COP) than 250% at our normal winter temps.
Coal $440 = $2200
Pellets $7 = $2800
Propane $3800
Fuel Oil $4200
For my house, Amazon made a pricing mistake and I bought a 24k mrcool for $1447(this years price is $2500).
Not as efficient as the senville, but complete diy with warranty without having the $140/hr tech finish up the install.
I figure I will be lighting the stoker if it gets real cold. With the heat pump upstairs I am concerned about the plumbing in the basement. Hopefully just idling for those 2 months.

Edit: Plus I should be getting back 30% of the cost of the mini splits when I do my income tax.
