I guess I'm just wondering how much, realistically, I'd save overall. My electric bill is $230/mth. year-round for a completely electric home with central AC, which is pretty good methinks, but those costs rarely/never go down...

We had a heat pump condenser at a previous home, a couple of generations removed from current. The idea was that the heat pump would heat your home down to about 30(?) degrees, and then automatically kick over to your main heat when the outdoor tempaerature dropped. Your contractor should be able to estimate the economics for you. For us it worked out great, paying for itself in 6 or 7 years
