I should have said that heat pumps are out of the question.
When I told the several reps that came out what it cost to heat and cool
our small home (1100 sq ft) the payback was so long that I'd have to
replace the whole thing before it ever reached the payback which was
about 50 years. Of course I'd like to reach that point and be in good
health. I'd be 125.
I'd need about 5 more lifetimes just to do what I wanted to do in this one.

I've had such terrible experiences with Carrier residential units I just have to put it out there:
as far as I'm concerned Carrier is absolute junk. 4 different "high end" units in 4
different homes - nothing but problems. The "high end" dual fuel system in my personal
residence was a much better RFI generator than it was a heat pump.
Just sayin. Glad to hear other folks have had better experiences than me.

We installed a 96% efficient Carrier gas furnace a few years back, not a bit of
RFI. Bryant is a subsidiary of Carrier so i would expect similar results with

I have no first hand experience with Trane but have seen complaints on this
reflector.... as an HVAC engineer I have used both in large industrial
applications, but residential is a different story...
A cheap hand held short wave receiver would be good for testing RFI at the big box
appliance stores.... be sure they put the unit in actual operating mode, as the
"showroom" mode does not use motors, just lights....
I wish I had taken the time to pre-test that @#$%^& Samsung refrigerator
instead of telling the XYL to buy what she wants....
