Xringer,

Thanks for the response, I appreciate it. Yes, our mini split has the inverter technology (Fujitus 18RLXS). My biggest challenge is finding the correct temperature settings. Last night (we do not need much heat at night) the setting was 70 degrees on the Fujitsu remote and when we woke this morning the temperature inside the house was 62 degrees (outside temperature 21 degrees 4:19 am (and dropping)). I then turned the Fujitsu remote temperature to 76 degrees to increase the heat in the house. The temperature in the house has increased to 63.1 and will slowly increase throughout the day but will not attain 76 degrees.

The mini split is different than what we experienced with our oil fired hot water system. I'm just now learning how the mini split operates in colder weather. Overall I'm happy with the Fujitsu, we have not used our oil furnace for heating.

Thanks again for your explanation, it’s appreciated. Another day maybe we you could give me some feedback regarding your TED unit?
