Trane entry level air conditioners heating systems good most air conditioning contractors offer a good better best scenario when proposing a new ac and heating system.
Ameristar vs trane furnace.
Trane and american standard are the same air conditioning company.
Replaced a 32 year old furnace.
There are quite a few differences between the trane and ameristar ac units.
The only exception to that statement is the condensing unit top that comes on a few of the high efficiency condenser models.
Amanas are made by the same company that makes goodman so you are comparing low end to low end brands here.
On the lower end of the price range good we are talking about entry level efficiency and features.
For one the compressors are different.
80 furnace models feature aluminized steel heat exchangers to conduct heat quickly and increase durability ameristar furnaces are built for flexibility to suit varied installations 80 furnaces are fully convertible to either natural gas or propane making them suitable for use in any area.
American standard acquired the trane heating and air conditioning company back in 1984 and has since broken up its various divisions in 2007 but kept the trane air conditioner name.
It won t be an ameristar.
Edit answer for another 11 minute ameristar is made by the same company that makes trane and american standard but is their low end brand to compete with the cheaper box store furnaces like goodman and according to a number of web articles has a lot of chinese components in it.
I ve heard that westinghouse furnace and heat pumps are good quality and cheaper.
As such both trane and american standard offer line of nearly identical hvac products.
Let s compare furnace brands trane versus westinghouse.
Now that you know i m definitely qualified to answer the question of american standard vs trane you ve been searching for.
American standard and trane are exactly the same.
The truth is in this range there really isn t a whole lot of.
I would like to get a homeowners or hvac contractors opinion on this.
The compressor is essentially the heart of the ac unit so there if quality and longevity is a concern trane has the edge there.
Not sure if we should spend the extra money on trane.
The 80 single stage model is very loud especially in the startup phase.
While the installation contractor was professional efficient and personable i regret buying this furnace.
In my opinion trane is way over priced.
