CAN I INSTALL THE UNIT MYSELF?
We recommend having a licensed HVAC contractor install our units to avoid voiding Your warranty. This will ensure quality and makes sure the unit operates effectively. We have an engineering department dedicated to assisting technicians installing and troubleshooting the system correctly, we advise once on-site have your technician contact our department for assistance.
IN SEER RATINGS, WHAT IS THE PERCENTAGE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A 14 OR A 16 SEER? HOW MUCH MORE EFFICIENT A HIGHER NUMBER BE?
For example purposes, we’ll be using 3-ton, 16-SEER vs 14-SEER air conditioners because they are popular sizes and choices in the Phoenix area. So, a 3-ton, 16-SEER unit in Phoenix saves you about $81/year in electricity costs over a 14-SEER unit. Take into consideration how long you plan on being in your home and the price difference between the 2 air conditioners
DO YOU OFFER INSTALLATION?
This service is fairly new and we are offering an installation option for Goodman units in Florida only. The installation service is conducted by a 3rd party and has a set price depending on the tons of the unit. We re working to get more competitive pricing for the installation services soon by having our own in-house installers vs using a 3rd party.
