Lots of things could affect it.
- You might have a defective unit.
- You might have some activity in the house, like cooking, etc. (or several guests) that is (are) generating heat that you are unaware of.
- There is a significant difference in humidity of the air inside or outside the house.
The third option is the most likely. Thermometers just measure the dry bulb temperature of the air, but there is significant heat (and cold) content in the humidity of the air, that thermometers do not measure, that the heat pump still has to work against.
