Hi,
Need to replace 13 yo heatpump and air handler. I live near Tampa (Palm Harbor), FL.
How do I compare units from different companies. Is there data on reliability, etc? Are service policies for labor important? Do electronic air filters make a difference?
Is a 15.3 seer unit for $6000+ OK. or is a $10000, 18 seer unit going to be more robust (or more complated and require more service)? Do you think the cost of running the 18 seer unit will pay for itself in a few years or not worth the extra expense.
What if anything should be done about possible leaks or other problrems in the ducts?
Thanks
