Obviously someone didn't install them correctly.



You new at this or what?

You got a crystal ball over there that is telling you why they are replaced?

Obviously, you havent a clue, but then, from your past postings, we will
forgive that as you ARE new.

You also might want to consider Rheem/Ruud if you can find a quality
installer in your area. I've had excellent luck with them.



So have I....got em stacked 4 high 10 deep in the going to salvage

Thanks for helpful comments. Regardless of parent Corp, sometime a
companies top of line is good even though low end builder's grade is
junk.
Also if there are identical units that are just badged differently,

might
make sense to get less expensive badge. [understand product backing

might
be
different]

For example, since Bryant owned by Carrier then Bryant's Evolution HP

may
be
same as Carriers Infinity but at different price.

Agn thanks

Don,

Amana is owned by Goodman, which got bought be a holding company last
year so Mr. Goodman could retire and spend all his money.

Bryant is owned by Carrier. Carrier is owned by United Technologies,
which also owns ICP, which owns Tempstar, ComfortMaker, Heil,
ArcoAire,
etc.

ICP used to be "Inter City Products", changed to "International
Comfort
Products". They had quality problems, Then Carrier's Parent bought
them. Now ICP means "It's Carrier's Problem" :-)

Amana used to be good brand, but I stopped selling them when
reliability went doen the tube 10-15 years ago. Local wholesaler
dropped the line. Then Goodman bought the company, can't be a good
sign.

Although I would rather have a Goodman than a Heil.

Just my personal, proffessional opinion.

Stretch
