I think you've made a wise decision. I live near the Bloomfield/Bloomington/Spencer area in an all gas powered home; and nearly all the heat pumps installed around me have now switched to gas for a couple of reasons. One, REMC goes off line in the winter several times and it's quite easy to start up a 4kw genset and power up some lights, freezer, fridg, and gas furnace(120VAC things)by tapping in to one side of the main panel. In cold weather a genset must be large to power electric(220VAC,100A) heat. My electricity was off 4 days straight last winter and I used 10 gal gasoline,kept warm,watched TV,food kept as normal, and didn't even know the power was restored until the last night when the security light blinked on. I stopped the genset, threw the double pole double throw disconnect and was back online.
