Four months and loving my Daikin Fit system, watched all your videos and this was a great choice. Keeps the house nice and cool even set at 76 and it is super quiet. The outside unit is so quiet, you have to be 2 ft away to even hear it running. Glad I made the daikin fit choice with your very helpful videos !!

Been happy with my Fit too. Took a couple months for the ac company to get the settings right, but once they did, been working great. I just wish their thermostats were better.

Awesome 😁 Glad you’re enjoying it we love the fits too!

I have some 38MARB and a 38MURA. They are both silent on the compressor. Some fan/air noise by comparison to others like a Mitsubishi but very quiet systems

Right on! Thanks for sharing, I’ve never installed one but the specs seem to support that.

Great video. I'd enjoy seeing a comparison between the Daikin Fit Enhanced and a Mitsubishi. I've always had the impression that Mitsubishi inverter systems are the gold standard. Thanks.

Yeah I could do one on the intelliheat system, that would be a good video. Mitsubishi is more known for their ductless systems than forced air but I can definitely add that video to the queue, we have a lot of videos in process at the moment that will be out soon but will definitely add this to the list!

Living in Raleigh North Carolina. 3800 sqft. 2 story. 2100 sqft downstairs. Hardly use heat - like it Cold in my house. I like toKeep 65⁰ all year Around inside. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️. Any Recommendations would be appreciated Thank you .

I see you saw the Daikin fit / Carrier 38Mura comparison video… honestly it just depends what’s important to you. For heating in your region any of the inverter heat pumps will keep up like the Daikin fit, but if comfort is not important to you and you don’t want the quieter systems then I wouldn’t worry about going with an inverter. Your climate does have decent heating and cooling demands though so you’d still see a savings going that route. Not sure if my comments are helpful but if you like it cold in the summer too I would think it would be worth it for sure to get inverter / Daikin fit type of system… 65 for AC is very cold! And the fit (most inverters with an EEV) does an excellent job of cooling and is better than a basic single stage. If you read through the comments on the Daikin fit video you’ll see mostly positive reviews, they work great. Sometimes takes some finetuning on start up but mostly legit

Something I noticed on the Carrier performance sheet is that the heating capacity is greater at 5F than at 17F. I find this odd, do you have any idea why this is happening? The Daikin appears to have a similar dip at 40F. I'm wondering if there's a legitimate technical reason or perhaps artificial throttling lets them game the efficiency ratings.

@TheHVACDopeShow

Yeah I am not sure… it’s probably like you said, a way to allow them to get a higher cop by “picking” the output in terms of capacity while also making sure it maintains a high enough efficiency rating to qualify for the COP tax credit requirements. But I was surprised to see that only the 1.5 and 2 ton carrier unit hit the cold climate energy star ratings

Hello! Does your company service Colorado Springs? We are considering replacing our old gas fired furnace with a heat pump.

I've seen two videos of yours where you talk about the new Daikin's Fit *ENHANCED*, but when I go to Daikin's website they don't say "ENHANCED" anywhere (other than you showing us one model that you say is Enhanced)...how do I know which one is Enhanced and which one is the old Daikin Fit?

@TheHVACDopeShow

Ай бұрын

It has “E” in the nomenclature of the model… your contractor and every Daikin distributor knows so they’ll make sure you get the right one😁 it’s only critical in heating climates and/or high ambient (above 110F~ climates)

@@TheHVACDopeShow Thank you for the reply, I thought the "Enhanced ones" were better for cold climates (I'm in Canada). Guess I misunderstood in the previous video :)

I had a question on Daikin fit systems because of it being variable. How do you know when that system has reached 100% capacity or how can you get it to 100% capacity?

@TheHVACDopeShow

2 ай бұрын

It does it on its own it’s outside of your control, trust me you’ll be comfortable haha there’s a lot of engineering that goes into it so it knows when to ramp up

@TheHVACDopeShow

2 ай бұрын

Are you having an issue with it? Short answer is it’s based on set point so if your thermostat is set at 70 and it’s 80 in the house, it will start ramping up to 80-100% capacity, and modulate as the set point gets closer, but it rarely hits 100% and tries not to for efficiency purposes. If you are having an issue with it not keeping up lmk

If you lived in a fairly cold climate like Southern Ontario and the cost for either unit was the same, which would you go with?

@TheHVACDopeShow

Probably Daikin Fit Enhanced, I’m not as familiar with the Carrier unit but either would work honestly. I would go with whichever contractor you like the best and what they sell so if you like the carrier contractor better do that, or if the Daikin contractor is better / better vibes go that route

​@@TheHVACDopeShow Thanks! I got better vibes from the Carrier contractor so I ended up going with them. A couple days in now though and I'm 90% sure I regret my decision. There doesn’t seem to be any variability with the heat pump/furnace. Temp is set to 23.5. Nothing happens until it reaches 24. At that point, it comes on 100% and is super loud inside. Hard to hear the TV, slight hissing noise, house sounds like it’s about to take off etc. My Apple Watch measured over 60db at one of the bedroom vents. It runs for the 5 min minimum run time, and at that point hits 23 (below the 23.5 set point). Then repeat once it hits 24 again. Just seems like it’s running more like a 1 stage than a variable that keeps a consistent temperature. I knew that pairing it with an ecobee wouldn't be fully communicating, but I was under the impression from them that it'd be a similar experience as the outdoor unit does its own modulation. I had them come by today to tune it down a bit (and they'll be installing another return air in the basement), but overall this is not what I was imagining when getting an inverter heat pump.

That’s a great system for that region! Very moderate cold climate and the high temps are also relatively moderate even though you break 100F it’s not as intense as Phoenix for example

I was in a Costco in Mexico. I saw a one ton Carrier mini split unit. I thought of purchasing it and bringing it back to the US. My good friend told me not to bother, they were junk made in China. Now I see this online 😅

Carrier mini-splits are made by Midea. They are great units but you can get them in the states. They are very common.
