Actually, for me, running the oil/electric portable with the heatpump saves me money. It keeps the heatpump from running two fan motors plus the compressor. It does save over time.

I also have a back up of 100 gallons natural gas that supplies a woodburning type stove. So if my electric goes out I can still warm the house.
