When considering air conditioner brands for your next AC, look at the reputation of the manufacturer, quality of components and warranties that are offered. It’s also crucial that you hire a reputable installation company because even the best air conditioning system won’t operate as advertised if it’s poorly installed.
Manufacturer Reputation
With the Internet, it’s easy to do some online research and read reviews of air conditioner brands. If you see the same complaint over and over again from different homeowners, it’s likely that you might experience the same issue. Also, take a look at the manufacturer website to see what kind of research and development they’re putting into their air conditioners and what sets them apart.
Quality of Components
An air conditioner is only as good as the sum of its parts. Air conditioner brands using low-quality components will lead to performance issues, breakdowns and ultimately future repair bills for you. It might be difficult for you to determine the quality of components between different manufacturers, so when you’re getting AC quotes, make sure to ask the sales representative about what kind of internal components are being used, what they’re made of and how long they can be expected to last.
Manufacturer Warranties
If the air conditioner is made of quality components, the manufacturer should feel confident offering warranties to cover defects or problems. An exceptionally low-priced AC unit is not a good deal if there is a limited warranty and you have to pocket the cost of replacement parts for continual repairs. Before committing to a specific AC brand, make sure you completely understand the manufacturer warranty and what will and will not be covered.
Dealer Reputation and Guarantee
Most important of all, the quality of the unit is only as good as the service and reputation of the company you invest with for your comfort needs. Check your dealers background, service and installation ratings, and how they stack up at your local Better Business Bureau. All mechanical units can have issues and the difference is the dealer that backs it up.
