That sounds like a scam… Like you only need a small resistance heater to keep the thing running. But yeah the double things have another operating range again idk how it works exactly, but the minimum temperature shouldn’t be a big issue to solve, even with electricity. -17°C isn’t that cold either, i would be super pissed if my heater stops working the coldest days of the year… Every year… Because that happened to me with a gas boiler once, it broke on Christmas and nobody could fix it for over a week because the replacement wasn’t in stock because a part broke that tje technician didn’t know that it even can break :/
I would probably have put a bonfire in front of the outside unit XD but yeah i might read about it a little, im thinking about buying a AC because it gets hotter and hotter as well. (its really weird, climate change where i live makes a few days extremely hot, bit also causes longer cold and a shift in time i have been seeing every year, winter starts later and later but hits a little harder (more snow mostly) but also lasts longer into the year. It’s weird.
We have a very mild climate historically. The last few years the summer have been really hot but the winters aren’t to bad.
They don’t plow or salt the roads in the winter. When it snows and ices, the town just shuts down. It’s really weird to me having lived elsewhere.

You can Google it. It’s a pretty well documented and know limitation of the system
I googled the shit out of it because I didn’t know my system was a heat pump and it sounded like bullshit.
Didn’t have heat for four days.

This guy does a great job explaining how they work and the temperature issue you have
Can’t believe it took this long for someone to pull out the @[email protected] link.
