Well, as soon as it got cold (dropped into the 30s), I turned on the heat pump only to find it couldn't heat the shop when the temperature dropped below 50° outside. That's a no go for me. I can't deal with the cold. I did some online searching for a low ambient temperature split system and found a 4 ton made by Mr. Cool. Just so happened Rick needed to replace a system for one of his clients, and when I showed him what I was going to buy for the shop he elected to buy the same unit for his client. So he opened an account with the company and ordered 2 of the systems, one for his client and one for me. Mine just got delivered. Thanks Rick, the check should be at your place tomorrow or Friday. It was a pretty damn good deal too.... tax and delivery (liftgate service) included, mine cost $2,780.00 for a 4 ton 15.8 SEER2 heat pump system that can heat down to 5°. That'll work for me.
I pumped down the 3 ton system Rick gave me so I can uninstall it, and I'm giving it to my neighbor who'll use it in his shop (1/2 the size of mine), but he only wanted A/C, so that works out perfectly.
