1. Do you have that option?
2. Do you think it was worth it?
3. I assume it has limitations just like home heat pumps?
Yes, it came with the RV.
Well, free, yes. Would I pay for it? no.
We have used ours twice. It is as loud as the A/C and takes entirely too long to blow warm air. And, it is only useful with hook ups. Maybe, if we only had the furnace, we would use it more. But we also have a fireplace. Yes, it is electric and looks kind of fake. But it is incredibly quiet and puts out more heat than our heat pump. If we ever buy another RV, it will have the fireplace and not the heat pump.
