Greetings,
I am lining up for a new air conditioner. The Trane XL14i is boasting sound
ratings of 76... Sound ratings are important enough to me to weigh heavily
on my final decision. I have a choice of Carrier, Trane, or York.

I am having a 2-1/2 ton, with R410a Refrigerant...Puron as Carrier calls
it...

Any suggestions on sound ratings or where I can get further information on
this...I would like to see a sheet that lists all the manufacturers side by
side with their sound ratings but this does not seem easy to find...

Steve
