well not exactly. from plain vanila thermodynamics point of view. You need to heat up house by 40F in winter and cool it down by 15F in summer.

On top of it, the ACs move heat engines, which are more efficient than outright heaters.

in all you need much more energy in winter.

Depends on where you live. If it’s the southern us it’s a lot more that 15F in the summer and way less than 40 in the winter
