Reviews

Rated 4.8 out of 5 by 27 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Excellent product. Could not be more pleased with this system. Operates so quietly and efficiently that we are hardly aware it is on. The "set it and forget it controls" are great. The fact that it is made completely in the U.S. was another selling factor. I would readily recommend this unit to anyone in need of a new system. I think that it is the best on the market. December 5, 2012

Rated 5 out of 5 by This product has great features I like how quiet the unit is and the efficientcy it affords (cost savings). February 10, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Quiet outdoors, but noisy indoors! When my 30 year old Lennox A/C compressor finally wore out, I bought an XC14 which the literature said was very quiet. Well... it is indeed much quieter outdoors than my 30 year-old Lennox was, but it is much, much noisier indoors! There is a loud buzzing which seems to radiate from the refrigerant lines inside the house. It is quite loud and quite annoying. January 9, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Fast unit Very quite unit inside and out. Ramp up and down is good. Short running times. January 5, 2013

*This chart compares the 5-year savings you can expect from a 18.00 SEER air conditioner vs. existing equipment with a 10.00 SEER rating and industry-standard equipment with a 13.00 SEER rating. The region used to calculate household fuel and utility costs reflect a cross-section of cities in the U.S. In addition to geography, cooling costs are based on 3-ton capacity specifications, with 1,600 cooling hours per year and 11.35 cents per KWh (Source: EIA National average electric rate-Rolling 12 months ending July 2009). Your actual costs will vary depending on the weather, local fuel rates, system settings and your personal lifestyle.
