Why can't I find a heat pump with a good SEER rating? The USA has a
law stating 13 minimum. Yet here in the UK, I looked at Panasonic and
they're all 7 to 11!


Its a longitude thing. High ratings are only achieved between about 70
and 120 degrees west.
A bit like music power really.


I'll bet that in the USA they may not be quoting the spec for heating,
just cooling


What is this "heating" thing? ;-)
