With overnight lows around 45-50 I'm using the heat pump for heat instead of furnace (convectors). It seems that the heat pump actually puts out more heat and more effectively if in the temp range that they work (above 45'ish). The unit over my bedroom typically sounds fine but at times it sounds like a friggin car parked on the roof, something loud, almost a vibration or grinding noise. I'm not sure if this is part of the heat pump system or if something is loose and I need to get up there and inspect to make sure all parts within are secure. I'll probably check it anyways as I need to get on the roof for something else.
I'm not too familiar with heat pumps as I don't have it in my S&B but it seems there is a phase of its run, sometimes, that gets annoyingly noisy. Is this normal or something I need to check?
