High-end systems offer new benefits

When it comes to air-conditioners, manufacturers are adding new features that increase performance and comfort. The question, of course, is whether the price tag fits your budget.

Here are snapshots of some of the new product offerings, thanks to Joanne Turpin, a contributing editor at www.achrnews.com.

American Standard

American Standard AccuComfort Platinum 20 air conditioner

This 22-SEER variable-speed air conditioner allows homeowners complete control over temperature and humidity. The unit runs at up to 700 stages, which nearly eliminates temperature fluctuations and allows the system to run at low speeds for longer times to help save consumers money.

Carrier

Carrier Infinity 20 heat pump with GreenSpeed® intelligence (25VNA024)

This system offers high efficiency and dehumidification due to its variable capacity, which matches the load of the home, providing more precise temperature control and fewer humidity.

Daikin

Daikin VRV IV-S Series heat pump systems (Model RXTQ__TAVJU)

This 18-SEER mini variable refrigerant volume (VRV) unit is designed for residential and light commercial applications. And it can connect up to 10 indoor units to a single outdoor unit.

MAYTAG

Maytag PSA4BG iQ Drive air conditioner

You may hardly notice it’s running. Its inverter modulates compressor speed, letting it run at an extremely low capacity to meet the cooling demand. On mild days it can operate as quietly as 57 dBA.

RHEEM

Rheem Prestige™ Series, EcoNet™-enabled, variable-speed heat pumps (RP20)

Variable-speed compressors and the matched variable-speed indoor unit (furnace or indoor air handler) precisely adjust to the heating and cooling needs of the homeowner.

Quintin, Carter did an excellent job on my warranty inspection! He was very friendly and knowledgeable with his craft. He explained everything to me so I could understand it. His wonderful personality makes him a valuable asset to your team!

I’ve said this before but it beats repeating. I’ve never had another company who continued to give me such top-notch service AFTER I spent all my money with them and after the usual honeymoon “sales” process. First, you stand by your product. After dealing with my terrible home warranty company for weeks I finally gave up and called you guys. You had Preston at my house that same night. Preston is always great. He diagnosed it and I was blown away that the super expensive part was still covered Under warranty. My unit is 7 years old and no one batted an eye. What a relief! Preston ordered the part and then we had to coordinate getting it installed. Mark was amazing trying to get me scheduled. It was going to take one more night and he tried all sorts of things to get that part picked up and Preston back to my house so I don’t have to deal with no heat. It was so obvious that he really cared that I was going to have to wait another 18 hours. You just don’t get folks like that much these days. I think you folks have a great product backed by even better people and service and I’m a lifelong fan.

Awesome job. Our tech this last time was Jake and we are very pleased with his work ethic and personality :)

The technician who came yesterday, Joey, was fantastic. He was courteous, helpful and professional. He diagnosed the problem quickly and fixed it. He takes pride in his work and represents the company well.

Thanks for sending him.

My son recommended Freedom when he had a new a/c installed several years ago. I am very happy with the service and the a/c unit. I have owned this house for 20 years and have had 3 different ac units but this one is the best. Great job Freedom and Air!

I used Freedom for years before I purchased my new air conditioner and selected them because their service had been great and they offered a competitive price with the best warranty of any other company . I’ve had my new unit for around 6 years and have been incredibly happy with how they have handled any issues. They 100% have stood behind the warranty they provided me and on top of it being zero hassle to get things handled under warranty they always do it in an extremely timely fashion.

Once my service contract ran out , I re-upped and I live the fact that even though I’ve prepaid my services for 3 years and they Stan Sri make no additional money off of me they always proactively follow up to remind me its time for my service . I love a company that continues to treat you like a valuable client after they have made all the sales .

I was very happy with my service call. The tech was on time and did a great job. He was a wonderful young man. Very polite and hard worker.
