Hi,

I want to get a new Bryant high efficiency furnace to replace the old Lennox
one (maybe 35+ years). But the current furnace has an AC (evaporator C16 &
outdoor condensing unit HS18). I wonder if it's ok to use the old AC with
new Bryant furnace?

BTW: I also have a quote for a new Lennox furnace (5-year labor warranty),
but it's $1500 high than the Bryant one (but only 1-year labor). Is the
Lennox one worthwhile?

Thanks!

John

Not a problem.

If you like to waste your money.

I'd suggest to get the Bryant, and bank a couple bucks for emergencies.

As to using the old AC, it should work. Of course, they will try to sell you
a new one. The old ones are less efficient. But, the tech should take the
cover off the old one, clean it with water and chemicals. To strip the
exterior coils and fins clean. The evaporator may also need cleaning.
