Going electric, one circuit at a time.
Heat pumps, heat pump water heaters and induction ranges each need a dedicated 240-volt circuit. Whether they fit on your panel depends on the math, not the brochure.
Typical circuits.
30–60A
Depends on size and whether backup heat strips are included. Strips are the big number.
40–50A
Some newer models run on a smaller circuit, or plug into a standard outlet with a battery.
15–30A
Several now run on a regular 120V outlet, which can avoid a new circuit entirely.
Plan the whole house once
If you’re replacing gas appliances over a few years, do one load calculation for all of them now. It often shows that a load manager and the right appliance choices avoid a service upgrade, and it stops you from paying for the same panel work twice.
