 "quick_answer": "As of November 2026, for a typical 1,800 sq ft gas-heated home on Coles-Moultrie Electric Coop electricity rates in Illinois that needs a new furnace and AC: It depends on your quotes. A heat pump costs about $60 a year more to run, so it only comes out ahead if its quote is at least $800 below the quote for a new furnace and AC.",
