I was told by the BGE Home energy efficiency guy that the heat pump installed was not suitable for this climate, but cheap landlords install them anyway because it isn't illegal.

I’ve been using Daikin heat pump at my 1600 sq ft house + unfinished basement since 2017 with zero issues. It’s actually cheaper than the boiler with radiant heat I had before since natural gas is so pricey these days. Cheaper than Mitsubishi but not the cheapest by any means. I think Mr. Cool is a pretty popular low end heat pump, could’ve been that maybe?

Or maybe that particular landlord simply got too small of a unit and/or hired a crappy installer who cut corners?

Yes, that's what I'm saying.
