I am replacing my Central A/C which is close to 20 years old and am
wondering if anyone can recommend some good, reliable brands that I =
should
be looking at.
I do understand that correct sizing, installation, etc. is important =
and I
will be looking for a good, reliable contractor who does all these =
things as
well.
But it seems to me there have to be some brands that have proven to be
better performing and more reliable than others. I can't believe that
central A/C units are simply a commodity with no brand being any =
better or
worse than another brand. I am willing to pay more for a better
brand/model, if necessary.
I have been thinking about Carrier and Trane. Any others worth a good =
look?
Thanks.
