This is on the house. Original Dual Fuel Heat Pump is 11 years old. Either replace compressor (800) and wait for the next thing to break or install new unit (2500)

Yeah, it'd be nice to get 15 years or so out of a heat pump, but at 11 I'd probably do the same. Hate to spend big bucks on a major repair just to have something else **** the bed a year later.
