Hi,

I want to get a new Bryant high efficiency furnace to replace the old Lennox
one (maybe 35+ years). But the current furnace has an AC (evaporator C16 &
outdoor condensing unit HS18). I wonder if it's ok to use the old AC with
new Bryant furnace?

BTW: I also have a quote for a new Lennox furnace (5-year labor warranty),
but it's $1500 high than the Bryant one (but only 1-year labor). Is the
Lennox one worthwhile?

Thanks!

John

A good rule of thumb is when you replace the furnace replace the evaporator
coil at the same time. It will pay in the long run.

On labor warranty, a year is really all you need. Most problems will show up
within 3 months if any.

They are all good. If you buy their high end you will be happy.
