Compare three paths with installed cost, operating cost, repaired life, and incentives.
Use all-in installation cost and realistic operating assumptions.
Stress-test a repair against standard and heat-pump replacements.
Start with the calculator when you have real numbers. Use the guide to challenge your assumptions. Then try the worked example to see how the result changes when one uncertain input moves.
