What brand? How many zones?

I spent $35K to put in a ductless system in the basement and first floor and ducted mini split upstairs in the bedrooms and upstairs washroom in my 1,050 square foot home.

Three total zones. But it was a Mitsubishi Hyper Heat system designed to work even in very cold temps, and those are pricey.

You get what you pay for with those H2i units. I did the same.

I’m too poor to buy cheap. I want something that will work well and last and these have a reputation for doing both. 😊

I'm confused by your meaning of poor. When I was poor, I bought a $20 space heater to keep my room comfortable at night, in a house I rented with 2 roommates. Id never heard of a heat pump, and buying one wouldnt have been feasible.

I could buy something cheap that doesn’t work and have repair bills, burst pipes in winter, etc., or I could buy something built to last. I can’t afford constant maintenance and problems so I do the latter.

Re: degrees of poverty, it’s not a competition; a Somali guy your age would view your experience as a palatial one after all.

That’s an outrageous price for a 3 zone . Was it a 3 zone 30kbtus or a 3 zone 36kbtu with a branch box?

The latter. Plus a 25 year warranty

No such thing as a 25 yr warranty. Highest warranty is 12yrs if a diamond dealer installed it

The dealer provided extended service guarantee
