Is this heat pump brand any good?
We score each brand by how its heat pumps compare with similar ones: the same size and the same type. A score of 50% is average. Brands owned by one company count together, so Bryant and Payne are scored with Carrier, and Amana and Goodman with Daikin.

Average (50%)
Scored brands have a QMID (the manufacturer ID the federal 25C tax credit needs) and at least 10 models with every rating. The score averages heating and cooling. Source: AHRI directory, NEEP, IRS QMID list.

How the score works
Like for like
A brand that sells mostly small mini-splits would win on raw numbers against one that sells big central systems, because small units rate higher. So each model is compared only with similar heat pumps, and a brand’s score is how many of those its typical model beats.
What the words mean
- Well above average60% or more
- Above average55% to 60%
- About average45% to 55%
- Below average40% to 45%
- Well below averageUnder 40%
A score says how a brand’s range compares, not how one model will do in your home. Installation quality and sizing matter as much as the brand, and brands near average still sell excellent models.
