Well, I can't really speak to the "supposed to" issue....they don't always do the same things for the same models, but this would be pretty strange if this were the only one like this. The wiring for the heat pumps and controls would be different than just the A/C unit. Having the thermostat for the heater out in another area isn't a great idea, I agree with you there. There would be several "fixes" for this. One is to move the t-stat into the bedroom. This shouldn't be that huge a problem depending on the location of the furnace. There should be more than one duct for that unit. Where do the others go? If it is a 30K unit, it should have at least 3 ducts. You cound perhaps swap the locations of the AC and the heat pump. I don't know what units you have so I can't speak to the wiring. The 120 VAC feeds should be adequate. Do these heat pumps have a single control or on the ceiling mount. This could be changed as well and might be easier. You can use a variety of controls on each unit. Ceiling mounts have all the controls and thermostat on the unit so you don't have any wiring issues. Do you have a manual for these units and the furnaces? Get me some info and I can probably narrow this down for you further. All the best, R.J.
