  • It’s a Carrier 38MARB Performance Heat Pump, and it SAYS it’s rated at 100% efficiency down to 5 deg F but I can tell you from experience that it starts buckling below freezing. I have monitored it over a whole winter season and when we hit the 20s it starts running defrost cycles every 15-20 minutes. Each cycle takes about 5-10 minutes to defrost. It’s not able to keep the room warm.

    Granted, this is a 500 sq ft room with a wide opening to the next room and a 25’ ceiling. I don’t think it was a great use-case for heating in general. For cooling, this thing is irreplaceable. It barely breaks a sweat and uses almost no energy, while keeping the room at any low temperature I set it to. I’ve yet to see it have any issues cooling, even when it’s 90F and humid outside.

    This is nothing about winning or losing or not feeling special. It’s not always rude to bring the conversation back to you, but often when someone is telling a story it’s respectful to keep the conversation about their story until they’re done. Then they will extend you that curtesy. But the conversation didn’t start with your story or interjection, it only popped into your head because someone else is talking. Next time, you can start the conversation about your story and the listener will let you finish.
