Which Trane system is better?

11 years ago

I need to replace my 3ton comfortmaker that is 13yrs old and have decided to go with a Trane XL20i hybrid system (two match my other unit I replaced 2 years ago).

I received 2 completing quotes and cant tell which one provides the better system?

Quote #1

AC Condenser - Trane XL20i 3.0 Model # T4TTZ036A1000C

COIL - Trane 3.5 TON HI EFF Model # T4TXCB042BC3HCB

Furnace - Trane XC80 80K BTU Model # TTUD2CO80ACV42A

Thermostat - Trane XL900 Model # TCONT900

Quote #2

Cooling:

XL20i

Model Type: Two Stage Cooling

Model Number: 4TWZOO36B1000

ARI Reference No: 4792750

Capacity: 36,200

SEER: 18.25

Heating:

Trane XC80 Furnance

TUD2CO80ACV4

Coil: 4TXCC007CC3

I appreciate your insight, bc it is very confusing to compare apples to apples. Thank you in advance.
