Need help in deciding which one to install
Both are 3950.00 installed
Payne - 14 seer, 4 ton, condenser unit, air handler, heat strip with no heat pump. Offering only a 5 yr warranty and will maintain unit for 5 years.
Amana- 14 seer, 4 ton,condenser unit, air handler, heat strips (15KW), no heat pump. Offering a 10 parts and labor warranty along with lifetime warranty on the outside condenser.
I live in a modest 4 bdrm, 2000 sq ft home. The airhandler is in the hallway in its own closet.
Currently, my Lennox is not cooling because the evaporator coils are leaky. This was purchased in 1987.
Please help me make a wise decision. Also, the co. offering Payne seems to have better installers. They Payne guy said the Amana co may take short cuts on installation. I have heard that installation is paramount to good performance.
