Before you buy

  • 1-year warranty; the owner pays diagnostics, removal, transport and reinstallation for service.
  • A retailer labels the heat 'Electric Heat'; the manual says heat pump.
  • Check for the H in the model number; the MAP14S1TBL looks the same and doesn't heat.
  • When we checked, the listing had no featured offer and one third-party seller.
