I've been told this is how the Maritimes heat homes.

I’m in the maritimes and probably about 60% or more of people around where I live use heat pumps instead of heating oil.

Huge nuisance paying a guy to bring his truck every now and then to top up the tank outside the house.

My mini split keeps the basement warm all winter long through -30 without issue.

A lot of rural Ontario as well. My house is on oil, and while we could switch to propane it's prohibitively expensive.
