Read more about AIRE FLO Central Air Conditioners
Aire-Flo's AFAIR12B is a 12 SEER air conditioning unit with the cooling capacity of 1.5 to 5 tons. Although the manufacturer no longer produces this unit, the company once promoted this series for its quiet, durable performance. It features top air discharge, a Copeland scroll compressor, a protective hail guard, and a heavy-gauge pre-painted cabinet and base made to resist corrosion. All units are factory-tested before shipment.
With seven different models available, the AFAIR12B series offers a selection of units in different sizes. All units feature strategically positioned service valves, accessible electrical panels and external brass service/shut-off values, all designed to simplify maintenance and service.
Additional components of this series include built-in thermal protection and pressure relief valves in the scroll compressor, liquid line-filter drier to prevent moisture and damage, a permanently lubricated condenser and copper tube condenser coil.

"Has been a workhorse"
I had this unit installed in a 1000 sq ft home to which I had done an extreme makeover. New everything including hi-eff windows, attic fan, metal roof, insulation, new wiring. Unit was installed in Feb 2004 and it has never had a down day since it was installed.

"After 8 years"
After 8 years, our Aire Flo 12b30a works really well. We have had no issues at all.
Other AFAIR12B Reviews
Aire-Flo as a HVAC company, and the AFAIR12B series in particular, have a mix of good and bad reviews around the web. Contractors on diychatroom.com generally regard this model as a decent, builder grade unit, and believe the air conditioner should provide solid cooling with proper installation. Others mention they have not been impressed with the company’s wholesaler service.
Despite contractor reviews, several homeowners on other forums agree about the poor quality of Aire-Flo. Reviews on heatinghelp.com and hvac-talk.com indicate these units are unreliable and poorly constructed. One homeowner states Aire-Flo products tend to have shipping damage and vibrate during operation. Another mentions faulty parts and the unit breaking down.
