Good morning, everyone, lots of good information regarding HVAC systems here. My situation is this. I have a typical 3-ton HVAC system with a indoor gas furnace installed in 2006. Looking to be pro-active, I have been getting estimates for a new system comparable to my existing system and also quotes for a new system using a heat pump unit outdoors for AC and heat, and just using an air handler indoors. I've been hearing pros and cons regarding each system and just wondering if there's anyone out there that went to a heat pump only system and did away with the indoor furnace. With FL temps, I would think that heat pumps are very efficient because we hardly dip below 30 degrees. The new systems using only a heat pump are about $2K higher than the conventional outdoor condenser and indoor gas furnace combo. Any comments would be greatly appreciated, thanks, Bob.
