Highest Bidder? UGLY!

Rheem!, Goodman If you want to save more.

Put a Heat, Vent, Light in the ceiling and call it good!

I never buy compressors from Lennox for replacement. I replace with a like compressor and buy an extended 5yr warranty for about the same price as the compresson from lennox.

Your 10 seer, 1992 unit is almost 17 yrs old. I think it's time for a complete upgrade!

If you check the Goodman high efficiency furnace has a 10 yr. parts and a life time heat exchanger warranty. The 13 seer condensing unit has a 10yr. warranty on all, or you can get a 14 seer condensing unit with a lifetime compressor warranty and a 10 year parts. Trane you pay for the name and...
