Makes one wonder whether you should have continued your warranty. Our home was purchased new in 2006 and came with a 5 year warranty as long as we paid an annual inspection fee. As the 5yr mark approached, we were given the option to buy into a 2nd 5 yr warranty for $1000. Seemed high but this is Florida and I wanted peace of mind. It has paid for itself already. We have an integrated Gas Furnace using the same air handler, controls, and control board as the AC. I do not think we could simply buy a new AC or Gas Furnace. Our unit is a SEER 14 and a SEER 16 or better would be a wise choice.
