purchased heat pump from Budget heat and air in New Marke tenn back in June of this year Was told that 100 dollar rebate comes with the unit we bought we have not received that
Hi we are getting ready to purchase a home and the have what I believe to be a tempstar split unit Product and Model are the same # N4A342AKA300 Serial# E100217811
Is this (and pardon me if I use the wrong terminology) a revers cycle unit or in other words a unit that cools and heats any other info on this unit would be greatly appreciated. and is a 3.5ton unit large enough for a 1300sqft house.
3.5 tons is overkill for 1300 sqft. The given model number is straight AC with no heat (not a heat pump). Likely, you have electric heat strips for heat or a gas furnace. Electric heat is more expensive to produce heat than most other types of heating systems. Depending on where you live geographically a heat pump would save you on your electric bill over heat trips.
