+Heat Pump Upgrades
+==================
+
+The following information is relevant for when a heat pump -related upgrade is defined in a project definition file.
+
+Types of Backup
+---------------
+
+The ResStock workflow allows modeling heat pumps with either "integrated" or "separate" backup heating.
+Definitions for each are given below.
+See `HPXML Heat Pumps <https://openstudio-hpxml.readthedocs.io/en/latest/workflow_inputs.html#hpxml-heat-pumps>`_ for more information.
+
+- *integrated*: the heat pump’s distribution system and blower fan power applies to the backup heating (e.g., built-in electric strip heat or an integrated backup furnace, i.e., a dual-fuel heat pump).
+- *separate*: the backup system has its own distribution system (e.g., electric baseboard or a boiler).
+
+Lockout Temperatures
+--------------------
+
+The ResStock workflow allows for controlling the compressor and/or backup heating lockout temperatures.
+Definitions for each are given below.
+See the `Backup <https://openstudio-hpxml.readthedocs.io/en/latest/workflow_inputs.html#backup>`_ section of the OpenStudio-HPXML documentation for more information.
+
+- *compressor*: minimum outdoor temperature for compressor operation.
+- *backup heating*: maximum outdoor temperature for backup operation.
+
+For example, a heat pump upgrade option could be defined with a compressor lockout temperature of 5F and a backup heating lockout temperature of 40F.
+See below the argument assignments that would need to be added to the ``options_lookup.tsv`` file.
+These values would override the OpenStudio-HPXML defaults.
+
+.. code::
+
+  heat_pump_compressor_lockout_temp=5
+  heat_pump_backup_heating_lockout_temp=40
+
+Replacement Scenarios
+---------------------
+
+When defining a heat pump upgrade, the new heat pump can either (a) replace the primary (existing) system, or (b) retain the primary (existing) system as its backup heating system.
+In the latter case, all properties (e.g., capacity) of the primary (existing) system are retained as properties of the heat pump backup heating system.
+
+Replace Primary System with New Heat Pump
+*****************************************
+
+For example:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+  - upgrade_name: ASHP
+    options:
+      - option: HVAC Heating Efficiency|ASHP, SEER 22, 10 HSPF
+        apply_logic:
+          - HVAC Has Ducts|Yes
+        costs:
+          - value: 50.0
+            multiplier: Size, Heating System Primary (kBtu/h)
+        lifetime: 30
+      - option: HVAC Cooling Efficiency|Ducted Heat Pump
+
+Primary System becomes Backup to New Heat Pump
+**********************************************
+
+Use the ``Heat Pump Backup|Use Existing System`` option from the lookup.
+The following properties are retained:
+
+- fuel type
+- efficiency
+- capacity
+
+For example:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+  - upgrade_name: ASHP
+    options:
+      - option: HVAC Heating Efficiency|ASHP, SEER 22, 10 HSPF
+        apply_logic:
+          - HVAC Has Ducts|Yes
+        costs:
+          - value: 50.0
+            multiplier: Size, Heating System Primary (kBtu/h)
+        lifetime: 30
+      - option: HVAC Cooling Efficiency|Ducted Heat Pump
+      - option: Heat Pump Backup|Use Existing System
+
+For this scenario, the type of the backup is (automatically) determined based on information in the table below:
+
+  ============= ============= =========== =============================
+  New Heat Pump Backup System Backup Type Example
+  ============= ============= =========== =============================
+  ducted        ducted        integrated  ASHP w/Furnace [#]_
+  ducted        ductless      separate    ASHP w/Boiler
+  ductless      ducted        separate    Ductless MSHP w/Furnace
+  ductless      ductless      separate    Ductless MSHP w/Boiler
+  ============= ============= =========== =============================
+
+ .. [#] When furnace is fuel-fired (i.e., non-electric).
+        When furnace is electric, it likely wouldn't be used as integrated backup.
+
+Other situations and considerations:
+
+- The primary (existing) system does not become backup to the heat pump when:
+
+  - the primary system is a heat pump
+  - the primary system is a shared system
+
+- When a secondary (existing) system exists:
+
+  - it remains secondary if the heat pump upgrade is integrated backup
+  - it is removed if the heat pump upgrade is separate backup
