Hi, I've been getting quotes for a split A/C system. My home is 2200 sq ft and I've received a quote for a 4 ton, 13 Seer, Payne heat pump for $4357. Goodman 4 ton, 13 seer, $4800. Amana (same specs) $6500, Trane $6740. What is the best system for the money? I don't need "bells and whistle" just a good system for the weather conditions here in Florida.

One is as good as the other, shop for the best warranty and best installer,quality installation is very,very important,the 43oo $ unit is as good as the 6700 $ unit,unless you want to pay extra bucks for a name brand,, not sure of the others but I know the Amana offers a 10 year warranty,all parts, but maybe some of the others do also

Got one more quote for a Trane XR-13 for $5498. What kind of questions do you ask to make sure they are a good installer?

Ask for referance,, several,, go look at their work, check better business bureau,, see if they have any complaints against them
