For climate control, we purchased a ductless mini split heat pump after hearing so many good reports about the make and model from internet HVAC forums.
It was my decision to sell our hunting cabin so we could afford to remodel our main home. My mother-in-law needs some help around the house and I figured we could furnish our attic and add climate control to give her a place to live. But making it a truly wonderful space was going to require a lot of money we simply didn’t possess right away, which led to the decision to part ways with the old hunting cabin. But who was I kidding to begin with anyway? The last time I had actually gone hunting was 10 years prior, and the primitive nature of the cabin made it next to impossible to take my wife and kids there without someone being exceedingly uncomfortable without running water or flushable toilets. Now someone in their late 20s who hunts all throughout hunting season every year can make good use of that old cabin while the money has officially been transferred into creating the nicest attic apartment that I’ve ever seen personally. For climate control, we purchased a ductless mini split heat pump after hearing so many good reports about the make and model from internet HVAC forums. The ductless mini split heat pump worked so well in our attic apartment that it encouraged my wife and I to buy a heat pump for the rest of our house. We replaced our central electric furnace with a heat pump as soon as we could afford to, and we couldn’t be happier with our new form of indoor heat. It’s much more powerful than the old electric furnace and utilizes a lot less energy to provide the same level of heat.
