I had one installed eight years ago when I bought my house. I’ve used it to heat the entire place, but this winter, I struggled to maintain even 20°C indoors on really cold days.
Well, today I finally brought my air compressor inside and gave the guts of the indoor unit a thorough blasting - and now it feels like an oven in here. I’ve been lowering the thermostat all day, and it’s still way too hot. It literally feels like it’s putting out twice the heat now. I was expecting a slight improvement, but nothing like this.
Lol
If you know what you’re doing, then sure. I do not. I know too many stories of people who attacked delicate machinery with their good ideas and then got all surprised when it afterwards functioned worse, and not better.
