Replacing baseboard with heat pump results in higher space heating

I submitted this earlier and was asked to add the .INP files to the .PD2 files I attached. Below is the original message repeated.

I'm doing a rough energy model using mostly Equest defaults and wanted to replace the existing baseboard electric heating with a heat pump. The resulting space heating increased from 57,000 kWh to 147,000 kWh (including the HP Supp.). From the baseline model I went into the wizard and added the dx heating and cooling and aligned the EER/COP with state compliant levels (10.7/3.2). Attached are the .PD2 files for baseline and HP models. Many thanks.
