Bryant

[LazyTurtle]

Does any one know about Bryant AC I never see them or really hear of them.
Need new AC and was proposed Bryant was told it is Carrier not that I am sold on Carrier.
I have never had any luck with AC's this is worse than buying a car, I do know I have no interest in Trane been there done that was a very expensive XL19 nightmare.
Any help anyone can shed some light on this, also is anyone can refer me to an AC contractor in West Palm area I am looking for someone who is honest and really knows what they are doing.

Carrier/Bryant, same thing

[LazyTurtle]

Would you buy it?

[beenthere]

I might, if I didn't deal another brand.

Nothing wrong with Bryant.
It just cost less then a Carrier. It comes from the same factory.

[LazyTurtle]

That's pretty vague don't tell me you deal in Trane
If it's not Trane who do you deal with?

[beenthere]

No, not Trane.

York.

This is a good question.... Who actually makes Bryant units? Does anyone still make their own units? A better question would be: What name do you like better? Or what paint colors do you like better?

[beenthere]

York
Rheem
Carrier
Lennox
Goodman
Trane

[RyanHughes]

Would you buy a Trane if you didn't sell York Beenthere?

[beenthere]

If I was a Trane dealer, yes.

Ok I guess I just not worry so much with "brand" as much as installer.
That is like playing Russen Roulette picking an AC guy it is a shame but they sure do talk a good game but when it comes down to brass tacks it's a whole different story.
Any suggestions? I can not even find anyone that I know or that lives around here that will say hey I used so and so and they were great here is their number. I have looked at the BBB and have a two that I would call but how do I know if they are full of BS before spending 12 to 15 grand? Any suggestions I am a female and that really seems to make matters worse I guess were not supposed know about AC units.

Have them give you their estimates, and explain why tehy want to do what.
Then post their plans(not prices)
And ask questions.

You would not go wrong with getting a Bryant unit..i would recomend the Evolution series.
