'I am shopping around for a central air conditioner that will be
installed in our 850 sq. ft home... any advice?
Howie'

ME: Thats like saying that youre going to the Donut Shop...any advice
?! How elaborate do u want to go on this purchase...do u want a brand
everyone will recognize and pay thru the nose, how long will you live
in your house, how much do u use a/c , etc etc.... My personal
suggestion is that, you keep away from Carrier and Trane due to their
inflated prices to cover national advertising . Select a high efficiency
Goodman . Its ranked number 2 in national residential hvac sales and
thier warranties are long. This is my opinion as an hvac owner .

"Hey....have you hugged your Guage-Manifold today ?!"




Dave:

In all seriousness, explain something to me...really...

Why is it that you suggest Goodman/Janitrol ****, that the customer is

gonna
hate you for IF he even takes you serious for a moment, and suggest that

we
real contractors can not get name brand, better quality equipment for

less?
I mean...Goodman is playing hell with that stupid lifetime warranty on the
compressors..you DO know that right? Someone gets to pay for each units
average 15 years of compressors...thats at least an extra $400 per
unit...geeeeeee....is that why I can by Trane units for less than a

Goodman?
Is that why that when a customer asks about the new York Infinitys the
initial price is a bit high, but the quality is there...and that sells
it..can you stand on top of a Goodman and feel safe? The new Infinity

grille
for the fan is so strong, it can support more than 300lbs....and ask me

how
I know this...
BTW...York isnt a big advertiser....nor is alot of companies this

year....I
can buy Carrier units for less than a Goodman here...wonder why?
Umm....market perhaps? Sales are slack? Could it be..GASP...that the
lifetime warranty on select units is catching up to them? How about that

new
Amana warranty.....lifetime UNIT replacement....does that mean anything to
you?
I tell you what it means...alot of mis-informed customers are going to buy
complete and utter garbage, installed by a bunch of guys like you and are
going to regret the day they let you in the house.
BTW...you are not the owner of any legitimate HVAC company. If you are,

post
total proof, and I will appologize in public...otherwise, stop making the
people in the trade look bad..
Post your licence number....you know its the law that if you are asked for
it you have to give it to them..you dont have to do it here...you can

email
it to me....
While you are at it, I want to see proof of insurance.


You ain't gonna see squat from the idiot.
