I'll say. 'Sounds like a bonehead way to avoid doing proper engineering.
When I moved here 21 years ago, (2-story 3500' Georgian colonial revival
house), the house had a 5-ton unit (heat pump) with 3 air handlers that were
installed in 1964. 'Bout 8 years ago, I installed 3 completely separate
units (a 3-ton and two 2's). The 3-ton does the first floor; each of the
2's handles half the second floor (half of second floor used only when
guests/children/grandchildren are here). 'System not perfect, but sure is
nice to "dial" comfort when you want it.

Subject: Re: [MBZ] Speaking of hot....
Any other suggestions before I call in my HVAC guy?
I've seen houses with two systems. One main one and
a smaller one to do the top. A different way to do
zones, and potentially more efficient if running just
the small system up top is sufficient for a good part
of the year.
Or it may have just been a bonehead way to avoid doing
proper engineering. Who's to say?
