Carrier makes a good 15k heatpump.
Blower fan is very loud.
Works great....

Thermostat

Are you interested in selling the thermostat, and could you maybe post a photo?

I'd recommend the Carrier Low Profile unit - I installed one on my '77 Soveriegn; got the 15kBTU w/heat strip... You'll need to modify the the inside panel for the curve of the ceiling - but that's not difficult. Real COOL unit!
