    What’s your heat pump? I’ve been looking into them and I can’t find one that’s willing to say it works past about -15.

      The Mitsubishi Hyper heat can work down to -13F, The absolutely best resource I’ve found for heat pump research is the NEEP database which will you give you actual BTU outputs at various ambient temperature readings: https://ashp.neep.org/#!/product_list/
       Also worth considering a geothermal heat pump depending on your geography, as then you have a guarantee of efficiency all year round
