Most hvac people hate goodmans because the brand cuts so deeply into their profits. Goodman sells more units and with a better warranty than any other brand. Every goodman install means that much less money for these guys and their high priced, high profit items. Goodman has had the best warrany in the field for several years and they stand by their warranty so anybody that claims that goodmans are junk are lying thru their teeth. Don't believe anything they say. WM You're right. I love Goodmans. I wish everyone single person in the world had one. I would become rich quick. Bottomless money pits is what Goodmans are. I replace parts after parts after parts on them. Cha Ching. Bubba snip Right. That must be why you spend so much time bad-mouthing them. I look at it this way. If they only cost half as much as the model you'd prefer to install, then they only need to last half as long to be cost-effective. Bottom line, it's all economics. In fact, the breakeven time is probably less than half, because if you replace one with new at the halfway point, you're likely to have improved technology for the second half. CJT, Are you really that retarted? So you think installing a unit half the cost, twice, is better? What about the installing labor cost? Your economics thinking is a little warped. If you are purchasing Goodman equipment wholesale and can get parts wholesale and do your own repairs then I can say, YES, Goodman would be a good buy for you. Personally, I wouldnt have a Goodman in my home. Do I sell them? You bet your ass I do. If someone insists on a cheap install, Im happy to help and they get a Goodman. Instead of them getting the standard "One year free service" by us they get the 90 day warranty. Why? Because its going to break. They want cheap, thats what they get. You want something better, I can do that too. The customer is always right and I give them what they want. Bubba You know,... you guys keep stressing how important the installer is. And then you only give a 1 year warranty on your "better" line? Is it the equipment or your installers that you don't trust? The company I work for gives 5 years on Goodman. They(Goodman) warranty the parts and I guess my boss just has better guys doing installatons than you do because he's not losing any money. Go figure. BTW, there are exceptions to the warranty such as filters and condensate pumps. They give 5 years warranty on labor??? I find that hard to believe unless they charge extra up front. We are pretty generous by giving 2 years. Parts are 5 years, and then whatever the manufacturer offers (10 years on compressor, limited lifetime on heat exchangers, etc.). |

Did you ever find a manual for this unit? I actually have one still in operation and need to know what the capacitor size is. I don't trust the one that's in the unit now and I don't know how else to figure out what the capacitance is other than to read the manual. -- for full context, visit https://www.homeownershub.com/mainte...ump-77188-.htm |
