    What is your concern? Can you elaborate?
    A J load calculation was done. Also we are installing a mini-split in the addition (13 f x 14 f) that is connected to the house but it does not has registers. It is also at the end run of one of the path for the LEFT side of duct work. For that reason it would also help.

    Any idea on the Daikin product that I mentioned in order to compare with the Carrier?

    Any opinion on the 12 years warranty from Daikin compare to 10 Years from Carrier?
    the fan is VS the compressor is 2 stage -That is my most common set up, but without putting eyes on a diagram and knowing the size of zones I would defer to Greenspeed which is VS AC/Heat ( compressor) and Fan

    Possibly this can be accomplished with 1 unit with zoning..........DONT YELL AT US
    That is why the Honeywell 2 zone zoning system is included. Is that zoning good for the system quoted?

    ^^^^What ksefan said^^^^ Green Speed is The Bomb......Lennox has a true VS as well, but not familiar with it

    Having a full time job it is totally understandable. However the post was done on 5/20/16 and no one has even make any replies in 10 days? It seam to me odd that in this community no one has seen the post. For example look at the following post "Thread: Trane vs American Standard Comparison" done in HVAC TALK on 5/25/16 at 10:48pm. Some one started replying the 5/26/16 at 5:51 AM and it already got 8 replies even over the Holiday.

    Now I kindly appreciate if you can still help me giving me 5min of you time to review my two proposal like you have done it with other post in HVAC Talk. It would really help me in taking a decision from a Professional HVAC person with an unbiased opinion I would greatly appreciated it since this is a really long time investment.

    Situation: replacing 1985 HVAC system in a split house. The duct system is divided in two path (LEFT - living area, kitchen....) RIGHT (rooms) Total 1880 Sf.

Honeywell provides a 5 year parts and labor warranty for zoning systems.

    The idea with the Zoning is to fix the toasting problem in the rooms.

    My QUESTIONS
    1- Please let me know what you think I should do if so far the DAIKIN cost is been offered 37% than the CARRIER.
    2- If the Zoning is removed from the DAIKIN it is the same price as CARRIER.
    3- IF I am able to negotiate the DAIKIN with Zoning at the same price as CARRIER what would you recommend?
    4- Do you think I should get the Zoning system or keep using the manual damper that I already have?
