Lennox G71V (modulating, 70000 BTU) at cost = 1.2
Carrier 58UVB (2 stage, 60000 BTU) at cost = 1.33
I've read various threads here that have not provided clarity on 2 stage vs. modulating so I'm taking another crack at that. Is modulating worth the premium? Will the Carrier really provide a third more value over the competitors noted?
