Reply to comment by Klikini in New dwellings in Washington state must be warmed by heat pumps, rather than furnaces, beginning in July, state board rules Friday by BarnabyWoods

That’s not the way it’ll be. New houses will be built with HVAC ducting and then after the inspection, people will install a furnace. This is so stupid it isn’t funny.

I would be surprised if it was possible to permit a new house that didn't include a heating system.
