They all make builder grade and highly efficient stuff. Having said that, Trane’s coils are a PIA to keep clean vs the fin style but they dissipate heat like nobody’s business. With all the ecm controlled motors they’re doing now too,(versus psc) they’re pretty sweet set ups. And quiet as heck. Yep- Carrier and Daiken now have inverter/dc-compressor condenser units for central/split HVAC - still a bit pricey, but the tech is coming along fast.

Make friends with a good HVAC tech:
You can order a complete system for around $3000(+/-) from IWAE.com and have delivered to your door free and pay your tech buddy $1000cash to install it (in the off-season), helping him with the 'heavy lifting'. Good luck when it comes time for warranty issues Most MFGR will warranty the compressor for 10 years as long as you the end-user complete/submit the warranty registration. I can easily obtain/replace small parts like caps, contactors, control boards, blower motors; ie- regular maintenance items, for pennies on the dollar compared to retail service. True, not everybody can do electrical or technical - that's why you need a tech buddy if you can't. Yep, register it when you get it. If something goes south, they’ll covernit

It’s funny how DC is what was originally the type of electricity used. They had trouble delivering long distances without losing power or lights pulsating. They switched to AC. NOW they’re applying the DC to components, once converted from AC to the appliance. And LED’s were invented in the 50’s. Look at us now
