    Try talking to contractors in the US. 2/3 don’t have experience installing heat pumps, and will try to discourage you from doing so as a result, or charge a huge premium for learning how.

      Oh so now it’s not the weather, or the commercial availability, it’s “the contractors” and “the experience”, or “the premium”. Like these other countries didn’t have to overcome these challenges with monetary incentives.

      This all still means the US is decades behind everyone else lol

        You can get them now, albeit with effort. You couldn’t get them 15 years ago in most of the US — the manufacturers didn’t have distribution.
