heard a guy on talk radio state that higher efficiency air conditioners
are
a waste of money.

unfortunately, i didn't get his reasoning, or what seer point is not worth
considering. i am considering replacing my 12 seer with a higher
efficiency
unit. my current unit is about 16 years old, but still works (Trane).

is it advisable to replace my 12 seer with a higher seer?



If the unit still works, keep on having it serviced annually and don't
bother replacing it until it breaks.
