Unless they are ground sourced heat pumps this is not right. When you get close to freezing outdoors heatpumps fall back on resistance heat. Wherrr goes the meter.

Heat pumps run cycle is very long reducing life of compressor and the electric bills are very high.

In Texas a year or two ago thousands and thousands of heat pumps switched to resistance at once, and dowwwn went the grid.
