A new generation of engineers has realized they can push heat pumps to the limit.

    Where? My $300 U shaped window AC is modern quiet, tidy and efficient, but I was reading about window heat pumps being $2-3k.

      My wall mounted split systems were <$1000 AUD each, 3.5kw. Found a sparkie and a fridgie to do the install, set us back around $3000 for two systems installed.

      Great units, added some wifi dongles and tied them into my home-assistant for remote / out of home control & scheduling.

      Probably the best addition to our home currently, don’t know how we lived here using pedestal fans and gas heating.

      Search Amazon for “window heat pump”.

      I cannot comment on quality or efficiency.
