Competency indeed seems like one of the larger challenges for them in the US, especially during the sizing phase. When I had some mini-splits installed, the amount of bad information and outright lying even from established, top rated contractors was staggering. When we finally found someone that wasn’t completely stupid and quoting “fuck you” prices, they completely oversized the units. In the winter, they are reliably toasty warm even below zero, and in the summer they cool the rooms quickly… too quickly. Like, almost instantly. The result is a terrible increase in humidity, because they don’t run long enough to pull water out of the air. If I run them in dehumidification mode, it turns the room into a meat locker. So, I have to run a regular floor dehumidifier in the summer, much to my chagrin. When I look at the other quotes I got, they were all similarly over provisioned. Very frustrating.
