  • That was a PISS POOR installation. My God that work was amateur.

  • what systems were used total for this build? i just bought my first house and love the idea of a heat pump

  • Can your heat pump be put in to the house to run through furnace pipes with the furnace not working. In other words use winter and summer.

  • I dont have a boiler or HVAC in my house. I had electric baseboard throughout my whole house. My electric bill was 1200 to 1400 a month. I installed 3 Fujitsu's low ambient temperature units. Not only did they heat my house all winter, but my electric bill dropped to under $200 a month. Look I know people are scared of the unknown, but these units are awesome. I would stick to Mitsubishi or Fujitsu. I did the work myself, I am qualified though I have a universal 608 license. Paid 6k for everything. Mine heat down to negative 15f. This winter they did their job. I live in upstate NY by a lake.
