Never said one was better than the other....just said that a properly installed system will out perform an improperly installed system every day of the week.....no matter what the system is.Quote:

It seems to me I heard that Rheem has an enclosed burner 80% furnace that is quite quiet. If so, I would think that sound rating may be a major factor with a condo install and so I would recommend the Rheem in this situation.
Because non-specific accusations about equipment brands and one line quips that don't add anything to the conversation are basically wastes of time by posters who just want to create crap.Quote:

Well you missed on that one. Have worked with recips for a very long time. Just kinda of a dying technology. Dont know why you would recommend a recip over a scroll. I guess with the equipment she mentioned, (13 seer R22) It may not matter much.Quote:

So what are you saying? You suggested it to the op, I was just stating that they were not commonly used there.Quote:

We need to keep ourselves open to all technology that is available to us and not get caught up in the snobbery of only wanting the newest thing to come down the pike. Let's talk rotary and inverter compressors. Will you be talking down scrolls in the near future because you think one of these may be better? Keep an open mind about technology. What is good in some applications is simply not the best for other applications. Why pay the cost of a scroll compressor on a 13 SEER low capacity system when a recipricating compressor will do a more efficient job (yes, recips are more efficient below 36,000 Btu capacity) for less?Quote:
