HEAT PUMP TIPS
Set thermostat at one temperature. Constant adjusting can cause higher utility costs.
If using your thermostat as a setback type, limit the setbacks to twice a day such as when you are at work and when you are sleeping.
Only setback the thermostat 6% of desired temperature( approximately five degrees).
In cooling, try not to set the thermostat below 70 degrees. Besides higher utility costs, this can cause the indoor coil to freeze and cause condensation in the house.
Check air filters monthly or bi-weekly. Clean or replace as needed.
Keep shrubs pruned back at least 18 inches around all sides of the heat pump.
We suggest having your heat pump inspected and serviced by a service technician AT LEAST once a year

It is also important to always check, and clean the components of the heat pump on a regular basis. Clean dirt or debris out of updraft fans by removing the grille, which is held to the frame by a series of retaining screws, but make sure the power is off before doing this type of cleaning. Also, see to lubricate the components as well when needed.

I think with passage of time there is advancement in technology and heat pumps are much effective now as compared to few years ago technology. Most brands operate better now but still it is wise to do a heat pump comparison before making this major purchase. Try to update
