Why can't I find a heat pump with a good SEER rating? The USA has a

Its a longitude thing. High ratings are only achieved between about 70

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

The USA has snowy parts does it not? Have they not realised you can reverse those AC units?
