Amana ASZ6 Side Discharge Heat Pump 🆚 Daikin Fit Enhanced | 2024 Heat Pump Reviews
In this video, we do a head to head matchup between the Amana ASZV6 side discharge Heat Pump and Daikin Fit Enhanced Heat Pump. We discuss which Heat Pumps qualifies for the heat pump tax credits available through the inflation reduction act, as well as which systems are best for your climate. The truth is that not all heat pumps work great in cold climates, and even some of them don't do well in hotter climates like Phoenix, AZ, and in this video we talk about which of these heat pumps will be best for your specific climate and how they compare to each other in both cold climate and hot climate performance. The truth is you’ll find some systems hae more in common than you might have previously realized.

    I agree with others, this is a lot of BS talk. Also, too many slide sounds when switching screens. Did you hire a 5th grader to do your video editing and sound effects? it sucks big time, content was ok but just too much rambling though. Some ideas to improve your video turn the speed down, reduce the wording, use only a few slide sounds not 10,000 slides sound in 3 min of video... Watching your video made me nauseous.

    I live in Florida, so we generally have high humidity outdoors, but our AC units pull the water out of the air dying things out to 38%-48%. This is comfortable for us, but we are running commercial printers that seem to function best when humidity levels are in the 60%-80% /temperatures between 72-77 degrees. Are there units that can achieve those humidity levels effectively and consistently?

Walls around house will have 1 inch insulation foam on outside, and r 21 inside. It’s being built in PA Pocono area. I want to have two zones one for lower and one for 2nd Fl.

    • @TheHVACDopeShow

      Does the XV17 hit the cold climate heat pump qualifications ? It’s not a bad setup but I can’t remember what the Trane XV17 system does from a low ambient heating perspective… if it qualifies for the Northern region tax credit then that means it’s an eligible cold climate heat pump and it’s probably fine. That’s not a bad setup… you’ll find it will be warmer up there in the winter anyways because it’s an open loft so even with the zones the heat will rise, even in the winter. In the summer the upstairs zone will be a nice feature since it will be warmer upstairs and that will help it do a much better job of cooling

    Can't recommend Rheem/Rudd. Had two units installed. Control board "lost program" at two years on one unit. $190 labor. ECM motor bad at four years in the other unit. Contractor/manufacturer will not honor warranty unless I pay to have surge protection installed on second unit. 1/3 hp ECM motor is $450!!! The run time hours on both units are very low. My highest electric bill was $65, most months $30.

      If you’re wanting DIY the Mr Cool stuff is it. Goodman and a few others can be purchased online. Honestly Goodman is a good brand it’s the poor installs that have gotten them a patchy reputation, but they’re some of the better products you can buy online IMO since it’s essentially like a private label version or Amana or Daikin.

      But Goodman and all other brands require the lineset to have a vacuum etc… the pre charged lines on Mr Cool are kind of annoying IMO because you cannot shorten them because the lineset has refrigerant in it so you’re stuck with a sloppy looking lineset often times because it’s too long and never the exact right length

    I live in a 1600ish sq ft modular home built in 1975, in the middle of Michigan. My furnace took a dump and I need to replace it, but I am looking into a heat pump system. Normal Winter temps hover in the 20s normally, but can get below zero for a week or two some winters. Current furnace is an 80$ Miller. I am building a mechanical room behind my house that will be 14x10x7ft ceiling and that is where I want to relocate my heating system to. Approx 18 ft from my current lp furnace location in the house. Look into a combo fuel system as being we can get pretty cold in the winter, I don't think a heat pump system alone would work. LP is around 2.40 a gallon and I go through about 1000 gallons a year most of which is between Late November and early March for a normal winter period. I have been seeing the new Daiken system and this Amana, and the BOSCH unit, And Train units. Not sure of the biggest differences between them. If I were to just go to a new LP furnace, I would be looking at a 96% over the current 80% unit installed. It was having problems keeping up in the really cold periods. Granted I need to reinsulate my walls, but that is a different animal for a different video. So out of the Bosch, Daiken, Train, Carrier, and Amana systems, which would be the most suited for me? Or should I bypass this option and go directly to ta ground source system via a Pond, or a few Geo Wells? or even a Ground loop system (depending on how much loop I would need to bury at what depth). Im in an area where the water table is a bit high so get water flowing not too far under the surface. 5-7 ft will fill with standing water. Plan is to install return ducts from the house and each bedroom back to the mechanical room, which will be somewhat in ground 3ft- 4ft deep,, while 3 to 4ft is above ground level, ofcourse using an upflow design to blow into the 2 straight link ducts under the house. Will a full geo system work in my scenario, or should I look at a Dual Fuel for the really cold times, or a ground source system foregoing the system shown in your video here. Sorry for the long inquiry, but figured most of it was info you would need to calculate the potentials. Thank.

    • @TheHVACDopeShow
      @TheHVACDopeShow 2 дні тому

      Short answer is Geothermal can be expensive but if you have the money for it then it will work year round and less of a need for backup heat with good insulation, though they’ll still have a buffer for -20F and colder temps. My recommendation would be a Daikin fit or Amana Enhanced, with a dual fuel LP (80 or 96) because they’re cold climate rated and quieter than the Bosch in defrost mode and your system will be used for heating a lot. We install Bosch in co without issues related to noise but it’s still a consideration, and your climate has more frost buildup because of moisture in the winter so the Amana or Fit will be better IMO. I would get the 96VC on the furnace (not the modulating) only because it’s backup but will also allow for you to run it more regularly if electric prices spike or vice versa since you can change your switchover temperature if the price of one fuel (electric vs. LP) has a big spike for whatever reason. My only note is I would pass on relocating the mechanical room because oftentimes this throws off the entire duct design for the house and nothing will work right and certain parts of your home will get no airflow.

    I want to replace my HVAC in my miami condo in miami florida. 1500 square feet. The ducts already exist and there is space on the roof for my existing HVAC. BUT, I want to change the HVAC to a Pancake style because the condo was built to have a pancake. I am most concerned about dehumidification in the summer. I leafe the doors and winds open during winter. What do you recommend?

    • @TheHVACDopeShow
      @TheHVACDopeShow 5 днів тому

      Would have to look at it to understand exactly what you’re referencing but if you currently have a “pancake” (first co unit?) air handler then getting a new one and pairing it with a different condenser on the roof is probably fine. Are you saying you have a different setup currently like air to water heat pump / central chiller ?

    • @TheHVACDopeShow
      @TheHVACDopeShow 5 днів тому

      Yes but the side discharge systems are typically the quietest except it very hot climates they will ramp up to max capacity and be slightly quieter than a single stage counterpart. Where the comfort comes in is at reduced capacity / lower demands (ie under 100F). At full capacity everything is a little louder since it’s working to keep up but they’ll modulate throughout the day / temperature conditions as things change

    You say affordable but I missed the price. I would also like to see utility bills compared to a gas furnace. In my personal experience electric heating with a heat pump is about 4x the cost of gas but that is with older heat pumps.

    • @TheHVACDopeShow
      @TheHVACDopeShow 5 днів тому

      Price will vary from contractor to contractor I’m just saying the cost is similar to a single stage 15 seer unit. Cost to use a heat pump depends on local utility rates. We pay .12 - 14 cents in Colorado but in California people can pay .30, .40, .50 cents or more, but gas is more expensive there too

    Having installed many Goodman systems over the years, I can tell you, they're no worse or better than any other system. Goodman, and the other bargain brands DO cut corners that reduce the lifespan of their units. They put in the bare minimum compressor for the system. A Trane, will have a slightly oversized compressor, by comparison. I'm rural Tennessee, and sometimes I work for free just helping people get air, and I've put used Trane compressors in Goodman systems that are still running to this day, but never the other way around! I've been in the business 25yrs now, and I've not had to go back and replace any of the systems I've installed yet. Most of those were Goodman.

    Don't use your AC as an air cleaner. Just stop it. Stop it now. If you need to clean your air then buy a dedicated air filter. Use the standard high flow and cheap filters for your AC. Those high filtration filters are going to damage your HVAC because you'd rather burn up a 6,000 dollar AC than spend a couple of hundred dollars for a real air filtration system that's designed to do the job. Just stop it. Use the right tool for the job. Would you open your refrigerator door to try to cool your kitchen? I don't think so. So stop it, and if you see someone At Lowes or Home Depot buying a HEPA filter to use on their AC..tell them to stop it.

    • @davidrosenau3136

      This is confused logic. The filter matrix density is only 1 issue. All filters that slide in a track will leak. Roughly 25 percent of the airflow by passes the filter. The likelihood of "overworking" an AC system is highly unlikely.

    • @rickhunt3183
      @rickhunt3183 4 дні тому

      @@davidrosenau3136 no it's not. I know several people who had blower motors that were damaged I dont know where you come up with 25 % bypass from. once the blower motor produces a vacuum on the filter it's a tight fit. if you'd like to continue to use high filtration filters that's your choice. you might consider talking to someone in the HVAC service industry and see how often they find it necessary to replace a blower and what kind of filter they were using. A blower motor should last the life of the unit or beyond, but that's not the case anymore. No one can definitively say your blower burned out because of a filter, but the data sure suggests that's the case. It would be interesting to have a remote temperature sensor and a current sensor to to measure the performance characteristics of the blower. Also a counter to indicated how long the system ran to cool the area, and a log of the inside and outside temperatures. That data would reveal a lot about what is actually going on.

    A quick apples to apples comparison of the 2 ton GSZS6 (When available assuming street price will be about $3,700) vs 2 ton GSZV9 (Online price of $6,000). At 70 IDB, 67 IWB & 115 ambient outdoor temp, running at 800 CFM (per the recommended 400 CFM per ton) we get 19.7 BTUs for the side discharge vs 70 IDB , 67 IWB, 115 OAT & 820 CFM of 21.1 for a difference of 1.4 tons. Personally, I don't see the point of paying 60% more. Just upsize to a 2.5 ton and your MBh output jumps to 24.7 BTUs. Most of the components would comparable except the surface area of the cooling fins. At some point, the cost of these traditional box, variable speed heat pumps have got to come down.

    • @TheHVACDopeShow
      @TheHVACDopeShow 5 днів тому

      If your talking cooling and your ductwork can support upsizing the condenser / system then that’s fine, I would probably agree but the GSZV9 will handle the high ambient temps a little more gracefull whereas the side discharge ramps up quickly on hot days at temps above 100/105 depending on how you set it up. I personally would go for a side discharge but some people prefer the other.

    Purchased Daikin Air Handler and Heat Pump: Model #'s DZ14SA0301 and ASPT36C14 on Registration Certificates. Recently, issues with UV Light System on Air Handler -- just found out the Unit is "Goodman". Spoke with Daikin and they are telling me everything is the same on the Goodman Unit as a Daikin Unit, just the label is different. 8 Months after I purchased the system, the air handler blower died (The X-13 Blower is what they have on paper work); It was covered under warranty. Then there was debris build up on blower, had to pay $500.00 for them to come out -- take apart components and clean. Have had issues, so now I'm concerned what the long term outcome will be for this Goodman Air Handler, or according to all parties -- it is a Daikin! Looking for any input you might have on the units. Thanks.

      It’s a good unit. If there was debris buildup on the unit maybe go for duct cleaning? Or change the filter more regularly, consider a filter upgrade… but it shouldn’t be a problem or get that dirty that quickly unless the filter wasn’t being changed regularly and/or you have lots of dust / dogs and pet dander etc
