Efficiency depends on the SEER ratings of the equipment but to get the maximum efficiency out of any equipment it is important that the system is sized and installed properly. Carrier makes a good product and as long as it is installed properly you can get many years of comfort from the system.

I had a new Carrier air conditioner installed about 3 years ago. It worked fine for two years and then we had a problem with the cooling. We called and the man told us the compressor was bad. We had it replaced and its been running fine ever since. The service company told us if we would had a regular maintencace plan then we porably wouldn't have lost the compressor. Now we get regular maintenace for our air conditioner and furnace.

Take it easy Bill, I rate all HVAC equipment based on my personal experience from years in the field and my knowledge of HVAC equipment and brands. I use a slightly different criteria than most users because of my experience. That's why we have this website so everyone can give their opinion. I urge everyone to be fair with there reviews. I would ask you Bill if you have ever owned a Lennox? I worked for a Lennox dealer for several years but I also worked for a Carrier dealer and know the differences between the two. I can't see giving any brand or product a perfect five because I know they all have faults. There are also lemons with every manufacturer and probably always will be even with modern day quality control engineering.

written by tom corrado, May 16, 2009
have two 23 year old carriers - 1 1/2 and 2 1/2 ton split systems - must replace same and only carrier estimate is $19,000 versus same in Goodman 15 SEER/13.5 EER R410A as R22 is gone in a couple of years I hear or at least more expensive than gold at $9,000 I can't justify that big a difference............

carrier and bryant are one of the same
written by vicki, July 12, 2009
I found that when I had A CARRIER FURNACE AND A/C SYSTEM i HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS. fIRST OF ALL MY FURNACE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE CIRCUIT BOARD. i WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS A RECALL AND A RELOCATION KIT HAD TO BE INSTALLED. tHEN THAT WAS A PROBLEM AND AGAIN THE CIRCUIT BOARD WAS THE PROBLEM. NO WAY WAS I GOING TO DEAL WITH THIS AGAIN. I REPLACED THE SYSTEM WITH DUCANE AND HAVE NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH IT. IT WORKS GREAT. ALSO I LEARNED THAT ALL MY FREON WAS LOST DUE TO A FALT IN THE VALVES OUTSIDE. POOR SYSTEMS BY CARRIER. THE ONLY REASON WE HAD A CARRIER SYSTEM PUT IN IS COUSE ALL THE ADD'S ON TV AND IN THE PAPER. I CAN ONLY CALL THIS ONE THING BRAIN WASHING PEOPLE TO BELIVE WHAT A GREAT PRODUCT YOU HAVE ONLY FOR IT TO SUCK.
