Pro Comments Wanted on Rheem RP17 Heat Pump

John Doe

I'd like to know if you Pros out there have any thoughts on the Rheem RP17 3-speed heat pump. Do those compressors squeal like a pig in heating mode? There are many complaints of this nature against other inverter driven units from Train and Lennox.

There are plenty of negative reviews on Rheem concerning refrigerant leakage in their coils. Have they addressed this with a fully aluminum coil? The photos I've seen of their coils show multiple copper to aluminum connections, and this scares the heck out of me.
