No.

The interesting thing about social media is that I can make any comment that I want to.

Don't worry, the mods will remove you posts soon anyway.

In 7 whole hours? Riiiiiight. Skedaddle on to Pornhub, they'd love to have ya.

The fact you're so willing to jump the gun and sue someone just because they called whatever you're doing a scam also says a lot about you. And none of it is good.

Reply to comment by Syrhen in Heat pump for sole heat source? by Syrhen

“Operate at -31” at extremely low efficiency when you need heat the most. Is this really all that hard to understand? I’m an advocate for heat pumps but people don’t seem to understand that they are not miracles of science.

removed oil from house last month. 2 extra low temp heat pumps do the heavy lifting. oil hydrionic system converted to gas tankless hot water with furnace backup for heat. keeps the original piping in place .

Have you considered something like the veismans combi boiler? It handles both water and heat. They run off either propane or natural gas and will hook up to your existing system. Small about the size of a water cooler and quiet. You would still be able to get rid of the oil tank, but you would have to add a propane tank outside which is perfect if you wish to get a gas stove or a generator.

Im in the same boat as you. The basement layout is awful to put in a finished basement in a small home so the only way to do it is to figure out how to remove stuff. We have contemplated the heat pump with a rinnai water heater and a pellet stove or the combi boiler and a pellet stove.
