We were told that we did not need a secondary heat source with this unit and the existing unit was disconnected to use the power for the mini split. I hope we were told the truth as I would hate to see all of my wife's garden be lost next winter. The salesman said they have a four head unit at their office here in Fort Wayne and it works fine all winter. They are coming back to install the dehumidifier and run the drain out the exterior wall into a french drain. They had to do the call before you dig thing. And it should be all finished.
Sometimes decisions from the heart are better than decisions from the brain.
Enjoy Life...
