[Let me say at the outset that I have one of the most efficient heating and cooling system one could possibly imagine. At my place in Michigan, I have an artesian deep well that will still move about 2 gpm at a head of 10 feet….. Suffice it to say that this makes for a really inexpensive heating and cooling system since this is flowing all the time and has been for about 15 years when a previous owner put it in the well. ]


Many thanks for the in-depth look at heat pump issues. I believe, of the US makes, Carrier and Emerson are two of the better-known players. What’s your take on these vs the imports?

As I said, this is in a related area to what I do so I’m not the right person to answer that question. I would need to do a bunch of research. However, I do a bunch of folks who are in this area and if I can remember and it is not too long from now, I’ll ask that question and shoot you a PM.

There is one more thing I should have added.... Efficiency and reliability are obviously not the same. I have no idea of what all to expect with the longevity and reliability of heat pumps but if it is anything the ridiculously steep decline to complete unreliability with refrigerators over the past 10 to 15 years, that obviously needs to be considered as well.
