Different Furnace Brands

I found this article on www.everythinghvac.blogspot.com and I thought it would be good to share with you. They author, Tony Bassett is a 15 year old HVAC technician. The article is about the different brands about Furnaces on the market. ENJOY!

Hello Readers,

My name is Tony Bassett I have been in the Hvac Industry for over 15 yrs. I have done everything from residential installs, services and sales. In my recent studies of all different brands and after working on them I have found Trane and American Standard in my opinion to be the top most reliable brands there are out there on the market today. Some of the other brands are ok, but beware of the ones that preach " way to good to be true" warranties. The expected life span of a furnace is typically 12-15 yrs, and a air conditioning system about 12-18 yrs. So the point that I am trying to get to is a 10yr parts and labor warranty is the most common as far as being the most logical.

The most important part of any type of equipment you choose is the installation. Find an HVAC company that offers extensive training to there installers and service technicians, this key.

When Looking for a heating or air conditioning system only get three bids. Research the top three brands and get bids on those. If you are getting bids on equipment and one is substantially lower in price then the other two it is usually equipment that make a difference. If you are leaning towards the lower price company you may want to do extensive research on the brand and the company before making a decision. Otherwise save your money until you can get the system you can afford or want, you'll be happy you did.
