Which HVAC change actually cuts the most carbon depends on where the building is. This maps the highest-impact intervention for every climate zone in the USA, so the answer stops being a guess.

The cheapest carbon reductions are decided before anyone opens a modelling tool. This argues for moving energy analysis to the earliest design stage, where a decision still costs nothing to change.
