Hi all, I am in the process of replacing a 20 year old Lennox pulse
and 2 ton AC system. I require a downflow and Lennox makes a 3 stage
one that will satisfy the Fed tax credit(G71). I have two quotes from
local dealers with one using the XC 14 and the other using the XC15 AC
unit. I have been looking and reading and wondered if anyone has an
opinion on either. They seem to be pretty even except the quiet
factor and extra price which the XC15 has a good edge. Thanks, Jerry

Do you always start a reply by calling people names?? I agree that
the pulse is a great unit, but I do need to replace AC coils and
outside compressor system. The space it is in and the fact that the
new coils are larger would require modifications that would almost
cost the same as the G71. I will keep the Pulse for my garage.

They also forgot to mention that the Pulse has a bad history of
cracked heat exchangers, leading to potential carbon monoxide
poisoning. I have a client where I measured elevated CO readings and
traced it back to the Pulse. Lennox is still offering aggressive
rebates to people with Pulses that have this problem, so you'll want
to have your HVAC company check into this to see if you qualify as it
could save you a few thousand on a new unit.

The Lennox dealers near me tell me they are out of Flappers,
Individual Xhaust Damper. The new substitute is Bellows
Adjuster Linear Limiting Switch.

So, if you can't get FIXD any more, you need to get a new
set of BALLS.
