What has been your experience? Appreciate your advise
My HVAC unit (a Trane) was installed in 2001 by Munns furing the original construction. It lasted 15 years with twice annual service.

Munns does not now recommend Trane. I replaced the old unit with a Carrier unit2 years ago.

I now have a new home south of 44 & the Turnpike. We have a Carrier heat Pump and are very satisfied. It has handled the 'cold' weather with no problem.

Good luck!
