Please do you and your wife a favor and shop contractors. Very
seriously look at this model from Carrier. It is sooooooo nice. My
electric bill was cut in half, my gas bill went down last winter by 15%
and the air in my home is constantly moving which eliminates cold spots
and provides overall comfort.


Sucker..thats all I got to say..no..wait..test subject....thats another
thought that comes to mind.


This is what I own (58CVA or Weathermaker 8000V)

If you have the extra money and it is appropiate for your situation I
would get the
http://www.residential.carrier.com/p...et_gasfurn.htm
as your gas bill will go down much more.


Wow...the same link not one time, but two...


When comparing AC condensing units I would go with a 12+ seer and buy a
unit that uses R-410a refrigerant. http://www.puron.com/



Sure....and dont bother to tell everyone that R22 is gonna be around for a
long time yet, and Puron has already been proven to perhaps NOT be the next
refrigerant.. R500 comes to mind...


As far as other brands ... Rheem, Trane, American Standard? None of them
can compete with how QUIET and reliable a Carrier or Bryant variable
speed furnace is.


Nope...not unless they are all installed correctly, and I can put in a
normal York 80% that you wont ever know comes on....hows that?

Oh yea don't let the contractors glorify the furnace
and charge you too much. Keep shopping until you get the price that
makes sense. Make sure they breakout the bill, labor and material. You
want to see what they are charging labor for ... ALL HVAC equipment has
the potential for high profit.


So..you dont wanna pay retail?
Ok..hows this:

Furnace, 100K, 95%AFUE, $1
16 SEER 48,000BTU AC, R22, $1
Lineset, FREE
Knowledge to properly remove, size, duct calculate, install, and service:
$7600
Total
7602$$
