Old Information,
By
This review is from: Heat Pump Technology: Systems Design, Installation and Troubleshooting (Hardcover)
Although the info section states "Previous edition: c1989.", this book was actually published in 1983. You will see this if you scroll further down to Product Details. This is old, outdated information. Spend your money on something more up to date.
