I live in colder climate Michigan, and here the best heat pump installation is to use a ground loop of water/glycol buried below the frostline.

—”I live in colder climate Michigan”

Here in Northern Illinois, it’s not as cold as Michigan, but close.
Air source is noticeably cheaper than the water source, but has a higher COP.

We put in a Water Furnace geo-thermal system with four 200 foot deep wells sending ground-heated water to the house.
It works well !

We had a heat pump in southern Indiana and it was costly as hell for heat. Never again.

I’m thinking of doing something similar with my pool in AZ for cooling in the summer.
