Review:
Installed a matched 3-ton 14 seer r22 Goodman compressor and coil this
spring. Everything working great so far. I replaced a 10-seer Bryant,
and my electric bills have dropped over $100/mo during the Texas summer.
The Goodman is very quiet compared to the Bryant.
Good equipment cannot survive a bad install. The installer I used uses silver solder, no flux, and properly purges and charges the system. It wouldn't surprise me if the majority of the negative Gooodman reviews wouldn't be there if their installer followed those three simple rules.

Review:
I have a 3 1/2 ton Goodman air handler placed in new construction 1/04.
After two years I had to replace the evaporator coil, which, thankfully,
was under warranty. Well, the warranty ran out in 1/09. I had it
replenished with freon 2 months ago and now I am without cool air once
again. The air handler needs replaced, but as one knows, you should
replace the compressor at the same time; particularly because the specs
are changing in 2010. I am dumbfounded that an ac unit would not last
longer than 5 years. I have neighbors with the same issues. The unit
hangs horizontal in the garage. I live in Florida. I don't know if this
contributes to the problems.

Review:
Just moved into a new house and the ac is plowing through electricity
like its going out of style. 5 days of use on a 13 seer unit and $100
later I called the install company to come out and take a look. There is
no reasonable explanantion other than bad install for this level of
usage. All the boards I have read and experts I have spoken to say that
this system should be using half the electricty it is using at worst. I
hope the issue is resolved soon, the home is 1 month old and I am not
looking forward to a $500+ electric bill. Just in case you are
wondering, I unplugged all unnecessary appliances and turned everything
else off in the house and then turned on one of the two ac units and
watched the meter spin away at a pace of 10+ kW/h, this is not normal.

Review:
Interesting to read all the reviews of the Goodman AC'S. First, we hav
enever had any problems with our ac unit. and it was installed 100%
correctly. The common problems with leaking is due to poorly educated
installers uding flux when soldering (won't hold in freon), not
installing proper raises on lines (required when hight difference btwn
condensor and evaporator), not installing drain lines correctly and home
owners not maintaining them (this will cause coil to rust/corrode).
Goodman coils are made of copper lines and galvanized plates (same as
all other brands). Do yourself a big favor no matter what system you are
having installed or serviced. Download the installation instructions for
each of our units - letter by letter - and go over the installation
instructions with your installer / service guy. make them do things
right and you will not have problems with leaking, etc. Btw: Goodman
AC's use the same Copeland Scroll compressor as most other (more
expensive) brands. So if Goodman compressor is poor, so is a Trane,
Carrier, Lennox, etc since it sthe same components. Watch out for shady
installers/service guys - they can easily butcher an install/service to
make sure there is more work for them 3-6 months down the line (like
soldering with standard tin as used for water pipes - it must be silver
blend and no use of flux - just watch "pro installer" videos on YouTube
and you'll see many use flux - amazing. glta
