The homeowner currently has a gas furnace and an old AC unit, which both have high carbon emissions rates. This new system will double the efficiency of the homeowner's heating and cooling systems. The move is on for homeowners to electrify their houses to help cut costs and greenhouse emissions. (Photo by Helen H. Richardson/The Denver Post)
