Question on Heat Pump utility closet

Seeing as how the 20 yo heat pump is in fact 20 yo, it will affect effiency more than a drafty closet you daft knob. You're welcome.

I am the real ftwhd and I approve this message.

I realize its 20 years old and is not efficient to what a new one can do; but I also can't afford at this time right now a new system; so if someone can just reply about the closet door that would be great.

Thanks

I understand the 20 year old model is not as efficient as a new replacement model; but at the same time I don't have the money to replace it. If someone can advise me about my original question about the door to the closet that would be great.

Ignore the other "ftwhd" he is a trolling forging pussy.

From your description it sounds like the return air is pulled through the closet door. If that is the case, blocking it off would not be a good idea. The cold air is probably coming through the unit coil as opposed to around the sleave. There's not much I or anyone can suggest without seeing it.

That louvered door allows combustion air to enter the furnace. Don't dick with it.

Combustion air on a heat pump?

Whoops, I didn't read that in total. Leave the door alone as it is probably your cold air return. No combustion there unless you have a Gas furnace to back up that Heat pump in very cold weather. If so that could be combustion air.

You were starting to worry me, I thought dementia was setting in. :)

Is it possible that Heat pump has a gas furnace for very cold weather> A condo usually has a Air to air Heat pump. This guy does live in the Boston area. Not exactly the tropics in the winter.

Yeah and not exactly prime heat pump territory.

I'm wondering why cold air comes out of the louvers into the room? Of course, I'd have to be there and have a look. Then, it would make sense, I'm sure.

can't afford it blah, blah blah. Just keep giving the utility company free money. I suggest you look up "true cost calculator" you moron.
