Heat pumps are shit!

[Molly]

What's the f*****g point of having a heating system that f*****g defrosts (so stops working) as soon as it gets to six f*****g degrees outside?

For f**k sake!

Jet Pumps are great.

Your one is not.

[Laxi]

Daiken heat pumps don't do that. Hit the thing with a fuckin hammer.

[merv]

Yeah so what brand you dissing Molly?

[Mom]

Six degrees is the new tropics?

Best you get the man back mate

[Kiwi Graham:Me]

Got Fujitsu, noooooooo problems oh and a six year warranty

[Jantar]

Our Mitsibushi doesn't do that either. But then again, it does lose efficiency once the outside temperature drops below 0 and is totally ineffective once it gets to -10.

The metro log burner works REAL well!

[R6_kid:Me]

move to a warmer climate... works for me

[LBD]

I dislike heat pumps for a different reason....theres always a draft. Radiators for me...brilliant.

[hayd3n]

heats pumps work great

ital all about location
my m8 got his compressor unit installed in his garage no drama neva defrosts there
shit our old panasonic one are like 15yo and still pump out the heat at 2degrees its 25c atm here

[Molly]

We've got an old Daiken (sp?) that works quite well but this new Fujitsu.... It's newly fitted by the way, though the outside unit has already had to be replaced under warranty (that one would defrost every 20 mins). There's been an army of engineers through here and it hasn't made a lot of difference.

Quite agree with you Molly, is the defrost drain clear? if it is, get the unit checked!

We have two Daikins and they behave pretty well to about minus 10 C.

It's been quite warm this winter so have not tested them below -10C

They do act up a bit if the humidity is high though, defrosting too frequently.

We run the Yunka with a low lasting fire (for hot water) and regulate the house temp with one of the heat pumps, works OK for us!
