After interviewing four AC dealers, I decided on a Carrier staged Heat pump that controls the temperature and humidity independently. My house is very comfortable with the relative humidity set at 55% and the temperature set at 78 degrees.F.
IMHO, Summa and Tony's AC, an authorized Carrier dealer located in Eutus, FL, offers a quality service, competent, highly trained technicians at a lower price then three other local AC dealers. They were the only dealer that insisted on checking the air ducts to be certain they were capable of returning the proper amount of air to the evaporator and replaced the the entire copper line set that connects the air handler to the compressor. During the first year, I saved $65.00/month, on average compared to the previous year using a Traine. Summa and Tony's phone number is (352) 357-4162.
FYI Bryant and Carrier are similar but not exactly the same. They are built on the same assembly line. The Bryant line lacks a few diagnostics that Carrier uses. I would strongly recommend buying the10 year extended warranty and having the unit serviced annually.
