Peanuts and Oxalates. Peanuts are among a small number of foods that contain measurable amounts of oxalates, naturally-occurring substances found in plants, animals, and human beings. When oxalates become too concentrated in body fluids, they can crystallize and cause health problems.
Heat Pump Power Interruptions. In cold weather, the heat pump extracts heat from the cold air outside and releases it inside the house. The process is reversed for cooling during warm weather. Â©2006 Publications International, Ltd.
Heat pumps are designed to be more efficient than resistance (emergency) heating at any temperature. Once the temperature falls below 32Â° F, a heat pump will need to utilize a supplemental heat source to meet the comfort needs of your home. When this happens, your heat pump is still efficiently moving a portion of the heat from the outside. Even at low temperatures, your heat pump system is always more efficient than emergency heat.
