Even many HVAC contractors are under informed here - my guy thought my Carrier heat pump didn’t work under 35 degrees until I showed him the manufacturer documents. Don’t go with a company that uses “rules of thumb” from 1985 when modern sizing and commissioning requires heat load calculations based on your building construction and specific details from the unit spec sheets.
Many modern inverter drive systems can do it. Mitsubishi HyperHeat and Bryant 38MURA come to mind.
Heat strips are really only needed during defrost cycle and so a compressor failure doesn’t freeze the occupant to death in their sleep. Modern cold-climate heat pumps retain their capacity down to 0F
Modern heat pumps can work well down to 15F and cold-climate models continue to work down to 0F
That’s 100% on the grocery execs, not “the economy”.
All broken down by percentile, please.
These would be good numbers for you to collect to support your argument.
Shop at costco. Groceries are expensive because grocery chains are padding their profit margins. For example: Ham for sandwiches is $2.99 a pound at costco, $10.99 a pound at Kroger/Publix. And the costco ham is real.
Publix made $4.3 billion in profit in 2023 - about $3m per store, up 48% from 2022. Kroger’s net profit margin is up 53% year on year.
Personally, I think it’s going great! Retirement fund is way up, doubled my salary in 2023, and have been able to max out my 401k and do some home improvements. Lots of friends are doing ok as well.
You did say “in truth … almost certainly”
Linkerbaan, where are you from?
There have been several Russian and Chinese efforts documented to use social media to divide America. Other than removing ToS violations and misinformation about election outcomes and covid, has there been any documented “censoring” of American social media?
In 8 days you have posted 17 specifically anti-US or anti-Israel articles - so I know you care about it. But if you don’t see a reflection of your fervent online persona everywhere, it might not be a conspiracy.
it might simply be due to the app’s popularity with Generation Z
they seem to exclude the possibility that content critical of US policy (whatever it may be) and which gets Americans angry at their own country’s alliances and foreign relations may be artificially amplified by TikTok.
