    That is the new Fedd res idential brand. hahah...Unfortunately, even the units made in the USA are for the most part are only assembled in the USA. More and more of the parts are from PRC. That is funny though.
    Sound installation practices is the key to success. Equipment is only as good as the person installing it.

    If I can't fix it, it ain't broke.

    I noticed something else on this unit, the factory installed condenser motor is a 1/3HP, yet the DATA Tag says 1/4HP .

    Fedders has never ben worth a crap. I worked on them in the 70's when they had the rotary compressors. They would only last 90 days then compressor failure. Some units would have 3 or more failures a year till Fedders roled over a died it self.

    The top name is the one misspelled, I was taught in school R before E when following D. Everyone knows that!
