Homeowner question: replacing my home heat and AC system...

Bob;

It's not the brand so much as the installer. You can even hire a *good* company and still get a s***ty installer. Talk to your neighbors, your friends, co-workers, and relatives [if you're still talking] :) and find out who they've all had good luck [or bad luck] with.

Any brand I sell and install. Why you ask, because the installation is more important than the name on the front of the equipment.

Hi, First, fidn and get hold of a high caliber installer. Then check with consumer report, your neighbors, etc. Around here we stick with Trane, Carrier, Lennox, Rheem.

Consumer Reports... LMAO

We? What we? Tony, you gots a mouse in your pocket? And what the hell is a "fidn"?

I like the ones with AC compressor INSIDE that way you have ac in winter and heat pump in summer. You will have to look for the manufacturers of these yourself as I am bonded to not advertise.

WeatherMaker?, I think Carrier has used that name for several decades.It's older than Worthington.

WeatherMaker is Carrier WeatherKing is Rheem

Carrier is King. (-; Hell, Willis invented A/C.

Thanks, but I don't need a furnace.

You said you 'thought' Carrier used that name... I was just making it a fact. :-)
