5. Don't go out and look at your electric meter
It is spinning so fast it will be a blur. You are heating with resistance elements. Imagine about three of the burners on an electric stove bright red. Depending upon how big the house is, that's what's heating you right now.

Air to air heat pumps are pretty efficient the rest of the time.
