Hello All,
My heat pump is blowing cool air this winter. The local HVAC repair person wants me to buy a new unit for $6,500. I must admit that it is pretty old system and may not be very energy efficient. The problem is I don't have the bugdet for it right and do not want to take on new debt by financing a new unit.
Can I have him recharge the compressor or replace it altogether? The entire system is still working except for the cold air.
I appreciate any insight.
Thanks!

Err, if it's blowing cold air when it should be heating the only part of the system that's working is the space blower.
As far as what it'll take to fix your system, your best bet is to go with a local c>Hello All,

Didn't you know that some air-condition devices are more efficient in winter time

Well GW Bush is not doing that good job of stimulating economy so some body got to do it
I must admit that it is
Some old units are better then new-ones didn't you know that
The problem is

It sound like you need reliable service contractor who knows what he or she is doing Take it from some one who do not have anything to loose or gain DIDO say that
Raffy - Try bidding for a new system on eBay.
Replace the compressor and buy a new bag of warm air. Replace the thermostat and it should all work fine again. If the air isnt warm enough after that, consider purchasing a "Reverse-flow Ductbooster". Bubba
You can have him do anything your little heart desires. It's your money to burn.
Time to call a couple other companies. Without seeing the unit in person, my answer is "well, probably....."
You've got the money...........
