I have never had mini splits in the same home as oil, so unable to do a direct comparison, but I am confused by your math or maybe by terminology. If mini splits are, say, 30% (or more) more efficient than oil, and they are operating at 85% efficiency at -13, aren't they still more efficient than oil at that temp? Thanks
