Bosch vs Mitsubishi Heat Pump opinions?

Danan_S | Posted in General Questions on

Does anyone have any experience or opinions about Bosch vs Mitsubishi heat pumps? I have a relative who is trying to decide between:

Bosch BOVA-60HDN1-M20G  4ton 20 SEER 
Mitsubishi P-Series 3.5 ton 18 SEER

The Bosch is marginally more expensive, and the Mitsubishi is a Hyper-Heat model.  The house is in coastal Connecticut (Zone 4).

    Oh, and the other question is whether hyper-heat is worthwhile in Zone 4 Connecticut, or whether it's overkill.
