That's a mini-split, intended for use in one room.

People use them in 3 season rooms to be able to use the room year round.

There's only a few major manufacturers of heat pumps.

Is a natural gas fired boiler not an option? I live in MN and with the temps we have, forget the heat pumps!

Interesting topic - heating is something I have paid attention to over the years, & for the past 3 years my wife & I have been wanting to move somewhere more rural in Michigan on at least 5 acres. 97% of the places we have been considering have propane forced air, we currently live about 35 miles NW of Detroit area & have always had forced air natural gas systems. Random comments & some opinions:

1. I prefer forced air systems because they exchange the air inside your house, & filter it. Base board heat or any kind of radiant heat does not do this. We have a make-up air system in our house, so when the furnace kicks, there is a feed of fresh outside air that draws into the cold air return duct, then is filtered & heated & distributed.
2. With a forced air system of either propane or natural gas, you can install a whole house humidifier.
3. My brother lives in Harrisburg, PA. & built his house in the early 90's - they are in a more mild climate than us, but they DO have winters! They have always had a heat pump, & whenever we visit there in cold weather, it just seems cool in their house - uncomfortably so. There is a heating "coil" that provides heat when it is required, so their electric bill goes up quite a bit when it gets cold.
4. One of my reps about 10 years ago who lived in the same area in PA. as my brother, always had trouble heating his house. He decided to have a geothermal system installed. It cost him over 30-grand, & he & his wife hated it - house was always cold in cold weather. The system utilizes 60-something air temps that are constant when you get to a certain depth below ground. The theory sounds really great, but when it's really cold outside, you want 70-72* heat inside your home! Obviously, everybody is a little different on what is comfortable to them. In the winter, my wife wants the thermostat set at 72.
5. We looked at a house about a month ago with our realtor - it was in a rural area & had propane heat. Propane has always scared me a bit because of cost. BUT, the homeowner was there during our tour & I got talking with him about propane. He told me propane has about twice the BTU's of natural gas, so half as much of it as natural gas is used. This house also had a whole house generator & he said when power goes out & it kicks on, it "sips" at the propane. He said he has his tank filled typically 2x a year.

Our electricity & natural gas costs have risen substantially over the past several years. "Necessarily" according to one former president.

My comments for what it's worth................I'm now leaning toward propane forced air as #1 preference.

Register air temps with heat pump; 80* +/-
Register air temps with propane; 120*+

Our register temps in winter with our geothermal are about 78*. That can actually feel cold if you come in and are damp. With propane, we would come in and stand over the registers to get warm. You could be soaking wet and with 120+* air, you get WARM and dry.

As I said before, if and when this current heat pump pukes, there will not be another one. There is simply not enough (if any) savings to put up with lukewarm air instead of HOT air coming out of the registers.

Nothing heats like a real flame. Same scenario in the kitchen. Hard to change from a gas range to an electric.

Gas hot water cast iron radiator for me. That's real heat other than a good coal fire.

You mean like a light bulb only burns out when you first turn it on?
I solved that by not turning them on.
