But what kind? For instance, a mini-split in an apartment is quite different from the 3-ton forced-air system I described.

People use the term "heat pump" to sometimes describe quite different things, so it's hard to know what's apples-to-apples.

It's a forced-air system sized for a moderately insulated 1300 sqft home. Don't know how many tons or the SEER rating.
