I have a mini split system with three heads that operate off of 1 36k condenser, ones a 18k head that heats and cools our all glass 12' x 30' Florida room. One is a 12k that does the same for a 16' x 25' family room, and the third is a 6k which does a back hall and lav. This is now my primary heat. My propane run FHW baseboard with 4 zones has now become our back up.
Centigrade or Fahrenheit?

Here is a better explanation of the efficiency of heat pumps you mentioned.

At What Temperature Is a Heat Pump NOT effective?
