The ground source heat pumps are extremely expensive. I bought a modular home that had a 90% efficient furnace included as a standard feature - they would only deduct $1200 if I had them eliminate it. The heat pump would run about $14,000 by the time I dug the wells. Local power company kept trying to push the heat pump. When I told them I could heat & cool my home for the INTEREST I would pay on the heat pump (about $70 a month with 6" walls) they tried to tell me I couldn't look at it that way - I asked them how the H*** are you supposed to look at it?

You're right it probably is too cold for a heat pump in Southern IL for a heat pump anyway. My brother in law that has one in North Missouri(power company paid for half) and he has to burn wood on really cold days because the system just can't warm the house. Has no problems keeping the house cool though.
