I moved into a home about four years ago. It has a Carrier Heat Pump (Puron)? and it is about 12 years old.
When looking at the home, before buying, I noticed that the emergency heat was cutoff at the unit (external mounted breakers) I asked the owner and he stated that they had not had a situation where they needed auxiliary heat??
He had the new unit installed and heated the home, even with the temperature in the teens!

During the first year I lived here, I turned the auxiliary heat on and turned the thermostat up to max. I felt and SMELT the heating strips.
My question is --how can a heat pump create enough heat when the outside temperature is in the teens without using auxiliary heat strips?
