    I wish I knew about what pumps a few years back when we replaced our A/C and furnace.

    But they, at least by the time I have to replace them again, maybe prices will have come down or the tech improved even more on these things 👍

      In my case, it was that our local HVAC shop literally only sold one solution. I couldn’t even talk them into a more powerful A/C despite having both a grow op (at the time) and server farm in the basement.

      Our A/C struggles to cool the house on room-temperature days, but that’s beside the point. Heat Pumps will really take off when the small time dealers start stocking them.

        In my case, it was that our local HVAC shop literally only sold one solution.

        In hindsight, I feel like I was taken advantage of. They even replaced my water heater “for free”, but I should have been given the option to buy one outright, as I’m now stuck in a rental plan that costs way more than owning it.

        And had a heat pump been offered, I would like likely gone for it.
