Do you think Bard exterior wall mount systems will become obsolete? Currently have a client with 3 very old Bard units and am debating on changing to mini splits. Anyone have any thoughts on the future of bard systems? They are becoming increasingly harder to obtain not to mention parts for them. I am curious to hear other thoughts on ideas for the future. The price of these systems has gone up greatly and take longer and longer to get each time. To me it seems mini split systems are a better way to do. I should also mention wall repair is not a concern in this thought. Please give honest opinion based on your experiences and or problems with these units. I truly feel Bard exterior wall mount systems will continue to be hard obtain and likely be obsolete in the next 10-20 years. What do you think?
