That's my question. Standard sized indoor units can kick out about 3kw of cooling. Which means they must be kicking out about 4kw of heat to the "outdoor" unit. So if we literally switched them over, the wall mounted unit outside, the "main" unit inside we'd have a roughly 4kw heater. If we cut the fan and coil off the inside unit and used a PHX, we'd have a pretty small indoor unit ready tonsoateibute heat about the place and the outdoor unit woukd be pretty discreet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
