Changing heat pump to heat strip
Has anyone changed a roof air heat pump to a heat strip?

Our Heat Pumps come with Heat Strips already!
It has been some time or I would remember details of adding Heat Strips to Coleman or Carrier Air Conditioners that did not come with them.
The whole idea of a Heat Pump would be defeated if it didn't have Heat Strips too. The Hat Pumps are better than in our o5 coach but still about 50 degrees or maybe 45 thy don't work too well. Our heat pumps at home had heaters in the compressor to keep it thawed and putting out heat somehow. We have two new units and I don't like Energy Efficient at all.
sounds like you have older units and perhaps the best route if you can afford it is to buy new units but not at retail or from CW.Just be sure they ill fit your openings and if you need new thermostats that you have wires for it or can fish new wires to it. We talked with some Folks, and the same subject might have been posted here of sources being found for half what some people pay for Heat Pumps.I don't remember where though.
