Perhaps. But its hard to ignore when you're in Texas.
I've heard this claim with roof solar panels as well. As soon as I actually crunch the numbers, you're talking about a 5-10 year window before you see any kind of payoff.
If we're talking about Multi-Family Units that have an industrial scale system? Sure. Would be great if these were mandatory, both to keep down energy utilization and overall costs. But for detached dwellings, you're talking about a huge upfront cost with a lot of potential risks of improper installation and some very marginal changes in cost over a few months a year that aren't notably better than a well-maintained higher end HVAC or... just insulating your home better.
