I got a kick out of one of 1st statements she says: You can get rid of that noisy air handler in the back yard" LOL! Yeah, put it right under your bedroom!

Ahhh, The R22 geos were so much quieter than the R410a's

I question the math in the article. System cost was 20K , heating oil bill was 2K per year and payback is 3-7 years.
