So, you are looking for a split (ducted system) and not a mini-split? I have an inverter-based mini-split for our lanai (variable speed compressor that ranges from 25% to 100% of the nominal capacity). I would definitely consider an inverter based split Mitsubishi system to replace the main Carrier system when it is time to replace it based on my experience with the inverter based mini-split. The big issue is that the inverter based systems can loaf along at a small percentage of the nominal capacity, and ramp up when needed, instead of cycling. You should be able to get a 10 or 12 year parts and labor warranty.

My question is...is it worth it? If I read on line, the reviews say it is --- and of course, I believe everything on line. .
Any thoughts would be welcome.
