One heat pump user on Reddit was pleased to show off the performance of their unit to other users. 

"Found the limit of my heat pump and I'm impressed," they said, sharing photo evidence of the feat.

According to the original poster, the system was running at a temperature much lower than what it was rated for. 

"Holding the room at 19C (our normal setting) [66.2F] while being -19C [-2.2F] is pretty impressive for a heat pump without resistive heating," said the original poster. "Overnight it dropped to -21C [-5.8F] and the room was 18C [64.4F]. Good enough for something only rated down to -15C [5F]. Still pushing warm air confidently, but just not quite enough."

According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, more than half of the energy used in American homes goes to maintaining the temperature of the space. Upgrading your HVAC equipment is one of the best ways to lower your heating bill, which is the best way to lower your overall power bill. 

One way to upgrade is with a heat pump from a trusted brand like Mitsubishi, which will help you find the right cost-effective solution for any home, such as one of its mini-split systems. Heat pumps such as these do better than other traditional heating and cooling solutions in terms of energy efficiency, and they combine both functions in one unit, saving you money in addition to the tax rebates you'll get for choosing a green solution.

To reduce the complication of finding the right installer, Mitsubishi has tools to connect you with a trained professional in your area. Its trusted network will help you install an efficient HVAC solution that suits your needs. 

The best time to act is now, since many tax credits and rebates are going away at the end of 2025, which could make a difference of hundreds or thousands of dollars.

Commenters were enthusiastic about the original poster's results.

"Very impressive, given that the Leto isn't even Senville's cold climate product line, that's the Aura," said one user, referring to the model of heat pump that the original poster talked about.
