    They’ve been used in warmer parts of the country for quite a while, but ones which remained highly efficient below freezing only became commercially available in the US a few years ago.

        Depends. There are ones like that still sold. There are ones which don’t switch to resistive heat until -10°F. Probably even colder too, but not sold where I live
