This video is BS, I see you're scared of homeowners installing their own DIY system and never needing you again. You're too late with the fear mongering

So you decided to create a clickbait video! Good for you! Too bad most of what you say is silly or wrong! 1. Yes, they cost more. DUH! An obvious fact the instant you shop for one. Since you would recover the extra cost in ONE year, that seems a very bogus "disadvantage". 2. NO, installation is NOT a bigger deal, and telling people that is just BS!!!!! 3. NO, they do not need maintenance twice a year...except when someone like you wants to be able to sell those unneeded services. I live in Florida, where *everyone* buys a heat pump. And pretty much no one I have ever heard of, including A/C techs, says to service it twice a year. In fact, most homeowners rarely service their units unless there is an issue! As long as you do a good job with your filters, they almost NEVER need servicing! 4. Most modern units have NO issue with delivering heat in fairly cold weather. At 0 degrees, many/most still have a Coefficient of Performance (COP) of over 1.7 and since the alternative for most climates is to have "emergency heat strips" for heating, which have a COP of 1, they still are cheaper to run than the heat strips! Is a furnace better? Yes, but then you really *do* have a much higher cost!

Nonsense video. 8 minute sales pitch.

This video is total BS from edge to edge. Not one word of it is true. 1. The $25k price is double to triple what you you would pay in NC. 2. Gas heat doesn't work without electricity either. 3. Heat pumps don't need maintenance twice a year, but probably should be checked out every five years. 4. Heat pump electrical connections don't need to be tightened twice a year. They are the same as every other thing in your house. Do you have those tightened twice a year? 5. Heat pumps don't leak refrigerant unless some thing is broken. 6. Heat pumps don't have a bunch of parts that wear out. They have one compressor and two fans. 7. Heat pumps had problems below 40 degrees in 1970. Modern heat pumps work down to 0F. You should not let Monkey Wrench Plumbers near your house.

Gas furnaces don't run either if there is a power outage.

I entered a competition recently in which first prize was a heat pump and second prize was 2 heat pumps.

What utter BS! In practice, the average air conditioner goes for years with no regular maintenance. What is a heat pump? An air conditioner that is used both in the winter and the summer. I'm giving up after 4:45.

You guys are out of your mind charging that much to install a tankless water heater 3:06.

Very good video. Very fair and informative without any brand or product endorsements.

but 2,3,4x 40 amp circuits when on demand is needed! Might require an entire electrical service upgrade from the transformer out. Versus a highly insulated tank of water that will stay hot for a week. Which can also sip energy off your Solar with out sucking all of it. 30A overtime versus 160A if all elements are turned on.

That ain’t help

What other units should we review next?! Comment Below!

such a great channel

0:27 the guy is more than a technician

What about pellet stoves?

How do you know the heat pump has less carbon emissions? If your electricity grid relies on burning a lot of coal, a gas furnace emits less carbon than your heat pump.

I've had the plumber out 3 times for E12 on a brand spanking new exterior Rinnai with no luck. Now what??

Hey, I've had this installed years ago. Replaced the bulb once a few years ago. It blew out again and went to replace it and now the lights not coming on. Any idea what it could be? I checked and the wires looks fine.

I have a dual fuel heat pump / gas furnace system. The pros: The 18 seer heat pump runs as long as it is above 40 degrees outside, providing all the heat the house requires. Under 40 degrees, the heat pump shuts off and the natural gas furnace takes over. Where I live, we have nuclear and hydroelectric generation. Electric is cheap. The Cons: None

Excellent presentation of different sources of heating

I'm getting error code E 438. Circulator is bad?

The crossover/mixing/diverter valve seems perfect.. However, wouldn't it also Create lukewarm water instead of true hot water reduce hot water temperature coming from tap Potential increased water waste Creates small constant water circulation Might slightly elevate energy costs Additional valve can slightly restrict water flow impact overall water pressure at the fixture

Still wish I could understand how the heat pump works. The setting is on heat (pump). The temperature is set at 68deg. The unit comes on and runs well over an hour and all I feel is cool air blowing around. However, if temperature is set at 68deg and it comes on and I turn it up to 78deg, I have to shut it off within 20/25min cuz it gets so hot in here. Whats going on?

Or just use a heat pump water heater with a UEF rating of up to 3.0

Trash

But what happens when theres a blackout? Lol

Good video

Love it, thank you. Since we are in SoCal, if we get the Heat Pump, we don’t need the furnace, right?

Balancing in accordance with the balancing schedule

Extremely overpriced numbers.

Heat pump water heater is not efficient. I don’t think it is the way for future water heaters

Overpriced like crazy!!!

I love the part where he tells us how to fix it

Did you say 5000 to 8000 ?

We have a code E.4 5 , still works with hot and cold water??

IS THIS GUY ONE OF THE PEP BOYS?

Really dude, have you looked at your nose.

I want a heater for a under sink water heater xy-fb. I can't find parts.

Most of these answers are regarding an air conditioner. I'm having this problem with my heater. My radiators are each registering different temperatures. The house temperature is stuck at 80 degrees, while the actual set temperature is on 72 degrees. I may have 2 radiators actually radiating heat even though I turned the thermostat off. I cannot set a temperature it only goes up to 80 degrees. What do you think is the problem.

E-371 what is it?

Nigeria plumber watching ❤ good job 👏

Does the cross over device still require a recirculation pump?

I like your video pellet stove heating system

What...❓😮 I heard Bad things about Lennox system

Very misleading! comparing the efficiency of your electric tankless to a GAS tank heater! Electric resistance heating of a tank of water is always 100% efficient. And no mention of the massive service upgrade you need to power these massive short-lived loads.

people dont realize how much power these use. Most normal homes cant handle the amount of current they draw. sure they are efficient but when they need 150 amps of power doest it make up for it? and gas instants need power also so in an outage they wont work either.

😂

Lol R290 heat pumps work down to -35C. Are you getting money from Exxon?

Good service

yeah how much power that compressor uses? what happens in a power outrage situation. I am a plumber/gasfitter and I don't buy heat pumps at all, you will spend so much power rather the clean natural gas. So what if natural gas comes from a non renewable source, your electricity too comes from there, but now you will spend 3x more by not using natural gas
