I guess I should have specified that I'm looking for a "cold-climate air source heat pump."

Here's a blurb from New York
"Modern cold-climate air source heat pump engineering has evolved to include features that were not available a decade ago, such as variable-speed, inverter-driven compressor technology and improved defrost-cycle controls. As a result, today’s cold-climate air source heat pumps work in very cold weather and are capable of meeting up to 100% of a New York home’s heating needs. While it is true that in years past, traditional air source heat pumps were less effective when temperatures dropped below freezing, a modern cold-climate heat pump... does not have these challenges. In fact, research shows that cold-climate heat pumps can provide comfortable domestic heating when it is as cold as -15°F outside — and that’s air temperature, not wind chill!"

Recently manufactured, high end, high efficiency "normal" heat pumps are just not what I'm looking for precisely because they don't work very well below freezing. [/quote]
