Same description as 1995 Trane packaged dual-fuel unit: Here is something you DO NOT see everyday (at least something I don't see everyday), a heat pump in Maine! It does get hot in Southern Maine in the summer, but not as it does further South. A large number of even the nicest, most expensive homes in Maine DO NOT even have central air. Hot water baseboard heating systems fueled by either oil, natural gas, or propane are the most common, and a lot of homes have forced air gas or oil furnaces with provisions for central air to be installed, but they do not have central air. A lot of homes, including one owned by my Grandma, have electric baseboard heat. You would be surprised how well this actually works even in a cold place like Maine. I have only seen four heat pumps in Maine, and I have videos of three of them. Maybe heat pumps are more common in Maine than I thought, but it never gets above freezing for most of the winter, temperatures BELOW ZERO are common, and snow piles high. These three things combined would make Maine a less-than-ideal place for a standalone heat pump (with no gas or oil backup) to say the least. Basically, I would never install a heat pump at a home in Maine. However, since this unit is dual-fuel with a gas furnace IN ADDITION to the heat pump, it is very practical. The heat pump runs in the fall when it is above freezing, and then when winter brings the brutally cold temperatures, the gas furnace will kick in. A lot of places I've seen in ...
