Aircon is aka air to air heat pump so, as with air to water heat pumps, they're highly efficient. Getting 3x kwh out for each kwh in. Ehether heating or cooling 

So useful for aircon in summer  - especially if you have solar and/or batteries to fill at cheap overnight rates.

Aircon is also useful as heating in the shoulder months when your ashp may not really be needed. Even better with solar/batteries.

@papahuhu I think that accessibility issues go in waves, then poly tishuns get tired or change / money gets even tighter and things drop off again. Local buses are my mainstay but even those are threatened periodically and we have to fight again. Toodles.

@toodles Such elegant symmetry. 
look at my lumpy bag of bolts, the polar opposite. Clouds and trees and G99 limits.
