What about York? I have a quote for a nice sounding system but do not know how York compares to Trane quality wise.
Not my place to trash anyone's equipment as i deal with a mixed bag of all.I replace York units yearly that have preformed well.I do not go back with York,personal thing,which may or may not have merit.As a hvac tech i of course look for servicing ease and call back times.I have had good luck with both York and Trane.Both will hit you with OEM parts.I personally fell that York overdoes it in controls leading to longer diganosis time and expense.I have two Trane units at my home.Not trying to sell you on anything,just telling you my choice.More expensive up front however.York and Carrier have a tendency to over control their equipment for repair cost.Once again,personal opinion which will vary as many times as however many tech's you ask.
