Pam of Levittown, PA, was tired of her heating and cooling system breaking down repeatedly. Her old setup—a Lennox heat pump paired with a Goodman outdoor unit—constantly caused her trouble. Over the years, she faced several major issues, including an outdoor unit leak that required a full replacement and an unresolved indoor coil leak. Frustrated, Pam decided it was time for a change and turned to ECI Comfort for a solution.
Pam’s previous system was not only unreliable but also highly inefficient, leading to skyrocketing electric bills. Even with her Ecobee thermostat, which offered energy-saving tips, her home’s overall comfort and efficiency were lacking. These ongoing problems and a disappointing experience with another HVAC provider pushed her to seek out a more reliable and energy-efficient system.
The Daikin FIT Solution
Pam chose to replace her outdated system with a Daikin FIT system, installed by ECI Comfort. The Daikin FIT is a compact, energy-efficient heat pump designed to provide consistent comfort year-round. Here's what she opted for:
Daikin FIT Heat Pump
A compact yet powerful system designed for tight spaces, the Daikin FIT provides high-efficiency cooling and heating performance while minimizing energy consumption. It is built with advanced modulating technology to ensure the system operates only at the necessary capacity, optimizing both comfort and efficiency
Daikin One Touch Thermostat
We replaced Pam’s Ecobee thermostat with the Daikin One Touch, which offers advanced compatibility with the Daikin FIT system. This thermostat provides features like remote control via smartphone, real-time performance monitoring, and energy-saving adjustments that work seamlessly with the system. Pam was able to relocate her Ecobee to her beach house to continue using its features there.
Surge protector
A surge protector was installed to safeguard the system’s delicate components, including its control boards, from electrical surges and spikes. This added layer of protection ensures the system’s longevity and continued reliable performance.
Other Benefits
12-year parts and labor warranty:
The Daikin FIT system came with a robust 12-year parts and labor warranty, providing Pam with long-term peace of mind and protection against unexpected repair costs.
Financing options and tax credits and rebates
To make the transition seamless, Pam utilized the instant rebate from Daikin, financing options with 18 months of 0% APR through Synchrony, and a $2,000 federal tax credit for energy-efficient upgrades.
Overcoming installation concerns
One of Pam’s primary concerns was getting the new system into her garage attic, which had only a 14 ½-inch-wide access point. Despite the challenge, the installation team at ECI Comfort successfully navigated the tight space, ensuring a smooth and efficient installation process.

Pam’s decision to go with Daikin FIT was influenced by several factors:
Energy Savings: The fully modulating heat pump reduces energy usage, addressing her high electric bills.
Reliability: The advanced system design eliminates many of the issues she faced with her previous setup.
Smart Technology: The Daikin One Touch thermostat communicates with the system as a whole, providing enhanced control and efficiency. Pam also appreciated the ability to move her Ecobee thermostat to her beach house.
