Question
I think we're going to replace our central air unit this summer.  Do you have any preference on brand names?

Thanks,

Answer
How much money you have ??? I'm a "conservative" ie tightwad. Make sure the new stuff uses R 410a freon. Thats the coming thing pretty quick. Want a higher efficiency ?? Go to a 14 SEER, maybe 16 for more cost. Chevvy type tho is Coleman, Tempstar, Rheem, Standard. NOT Trane, Carrier, Lennox, that a Lexus without the quality.
