I just want to know at what level should a rheem heat pump be caple of heating a house down to. It won't get past 30 and I have done countless things to it. Its 3 years old and has never done what I was told it should do. I was told to around 0 and its not even close to that. I put commercial grade insulation on the duct work even this last summer to try to help. Its almost twice as thick as the standard is. Before at about 45 to 50 it stopped working at all. No more heat. Now it will get to some where in the 30's but past that it will not heat any more. Lower 20's the house begins to lose temperature. I have been told by others there is something wrong with the unit but rheem has blamed everything they can on what I have but there can't be anything left. So please if you can tell me just where this thing should be able to heat to.
