Plus like stated above you want to add heat in heat mode, not extract it.
Doubt any evap would happen with large water droplets and cold temps.
Also well pump probably pulls around 30 amps at 240V.
How big are your heat strips? 20 amps at 110?
That was my theory, running water, not spraying. Also if 50° air works well for the heat pump, then I assume 55° water should work at least as well, but probably better. I would think that adding (relatively) warm water would be adding heat.

I'm not sure how much power the aux heat takes, but it seems to be a bunch.
