| domingo what is your location? This is interesting. This a low end Rheem condenser with very good numbers. You should be aware this is a 4 1/2 ton system, not a true 5 ton system. Pretty important if you need a true 5 ton. The air handler with a high efficient blower motor is not var speed. numbers below. 3799471 Active Systems RHEEM 14AJM SERIES RHEEM MANUFACTURING COMPANY 14AJM56 RHLL-HM6024+RCSL-H*6024 54000 13.00 16.00 1 As far as savings if all things are equal and they won't be, you should save up to 25% compared to your old 10 SEER system. IMO |

| domingo are you in a coastal or inland location? what exactly are you looking for-a sgl stage system or a two stg system? good dehumidification? just to be clear, the system quoted has excellent numbers with a very good price and it is available in a true full 5 ton system. what is warranty? was dealer including new lineset and thermostat? savings can sometimes be elusive when going to higher SEER systems. I assume you heat when needed with a small heat strip-correct? IMO |
