It has to be a 14 Seer if it is new as that is the lowest Seer rating allowed by law to be sold at this time. Bryant is a Carrier product and the level goes Payne, Bryant, Carrier the only difference is the bells and whistles that come with each brand as standard and the warranty offered. Also in order to by a Carrier you have to have a contract stating you are going to sell X amount of units with them in a year if not all you can buy is Payne or Bryant. As far as cost goes it seems a little high if he still has to have it installed and if it is a dry R22 unit he got screwed.

I think he means Johnson Supply. They are the York dealer. As far as Bryant it is the exact same as a carrier. Different sticker same assembly line and parts.

Sounds like a good price. I just had my entire unit in and out replaced and it was 2500.00. It was a Goodman 4 ton 14 seer.

You got the whole inside/outside replaced for 2500 or you got the new condenser for 2500? I got a quote for a 3.5 ton for 5500 installed. I'm not in the A/C biz and my borther isn't an A/C repair guy either.

You getting special pricing somehow?

I had 3 condensers and compressors replaced last summer. American Standard 16 SEER. The condensers were around $2800 ea, and the compressors were about $3500.

Your buddy's quote sounds high for what he is getting.

Condenser was $2800 each for you and he is getting quoted at $2500. Why does his seem high? Just wondering - honest question.

A dry 22 unit is a condenser that is made for R22 but comes without any refrigerant in the condenser as units with R22 in them can not be sold. These units are real hard to find at this time. There is a good chance that the refrigerant in the old unit was/is 410a.

As far as American Standard is considered all it is is a Trane unit that is made under the American Standard name and sold by supply houses other than Trane. Good units but have their issues just like every other brand.

As far as Goodman is concerned it is now own by a company called Dykin which is now the largest A/C company in the world. Goodman has always had a bad name due to they sold to anyone and over the internet. Therefore due to the install most of the times the units didn't work as they should or as long and there is no warranty when bought over the internet.
