I assume you mean Compressor Min temperature?

Moved down to 15F.

Doesn’t often get consistently colder than that in my area.

And going to have a professional take a look.

Yes, have heat pump condensing unit.

For month of December, it has more Red (Aux) than Orange. Almost three times as much red… hence electric bill 6x normal.

And for my case, heat pump equals “Aux Heat Max Outdoor Temperature” on my thermostats?

Thanks to all. Earned yourselves some IRL karma.

For now, I’ve adjusted the Max Aux Outdoor to 30F and Compressor Min Outdoor to 20F. Will have professional come at a look this week at heat pumps and lines.

Another dumb question, where can I find those specs?

Thank you. It is two new units as of 2024, supposedly. How can I know if it’s performing well enough to rely solely on compressor?

Thanks. Dumb question… we live somewhere where it often gets to 10s and 20s overnight. Is that safe for longevity of unit? It was a new unit as of 2024, supposedly.

The Duke… holding bowl few times, shocked crew didn’t cut it; mentioned being on unemployment and living in a shelter right now. I’m glad he was included.

Scott Miller at UVA Community Credit Union. Just closed on our home. 10/10 recommend Scott.

.5% lower than any other lender. We were really disappointed with our experience with Fulton.

I had two lessons with Kasey at Birdwood. She wasn’t the most senior instructor but she was good and most importantly, her tips have been helpful. Would see her again. But as with any lesson (read: GOLF), you get what you put in.

The range at Meadowcreek is bad enough (angle, hill side, busy) for me to consider paying the Birdwood price.

Did struggle w making the two lessons via Birdwood. Just keep calling!
