Review:
I'm a contractor that owns Payne and installs over 100 of their units
every year.
It is the EXACT same unit as the Bryant and Carrier builders model. The difference is they sell to anyone with a license, so many unqualified "furnace guys" do install these units and do a terrible job. We work for a home warranty company and not only do they only pay $400 to install an AC system, they don't even pay their bills! We make customers pay us and then they collect from them. Home warranty companies typically work with gypsy contractors (except us, of course).
If installed right, as with any AC system, it will work great for many years.

Review:
Payne equipment is Carrier. Contractors can buy the equipment without
having to be a dealer like you would for Carrier ,Bryant and Lennox.
I have been installing Payne for 10 years along with Carrier and Bryant and never had problems with them.
Most equipment is only as good as the person who installed it.

Review:
I recently had my ac unit replaced with a brand new in the box pane. It
lasted exactly 1 month and the compressor blew out. Now the insurance
company is charging me another $160 to have it replaced. I think that
pane should replace it's for free since it was less than 1 month old. I
have been without air conditioning for 1 week and I think that's bad service especially since I live in Arizona and the daytime temp is 100 degrees or greater. I expect a response immediately.

Review:
Actually, I haven't owned this unit for a year. I have only had it for a
week, and it is already gone out! Thank God that this replacement was
completed through a home warranty company, because I would have been in
bad shape. We had a storm come through yesterday evening, and before I
left for work this morning... there was no air flowing from any of the
vents! Definitely a cheap unit!

Review:
The Payne AC/Heat pump system is original equipment on my house and is
now 25 years old. It has survived extreme heat, golf balls and freezing
weather. It's still running, and I wish I could get another one just
like it because it's been so totally reliable and has required virtually
no repairs.

I have had this unit for less than 2 years now and have had to replace
the heating coils for the third time now. Fan moter has gone out 2
times. The real problem is the wiring and circuit burning up each time
Is this unit defective? Have there been similar problems with this unit
overall/ Please advise Thank you Earl Groover Model #pa3za042000aa Ser.#

Review:
I have a Payne Central Air unit. It was a home warranty replacement for
the original unit. I have owened my home for 3 years, and I have
received 3 new Payne Central Air Units in the last 3 years. Payne's are
the Fords of AC units. Buyers don't waste your money by buying this
product. Save yourself from a headache.

Review:
Purchased new unit in 04/2007. Was told it was a good product and it was
the same size unit I previously had. The inner coil split and I was told
it should be under warranty but I would have to pay for install and freon
which is about $700. If the part under warranty went bad then why do I
have to pay to put it back in and for the gas. I will never purchase
Payne or Carrier again unless they make it right on this problem.

Review:
On 8/8/03, the unit stopped working
Repaired two capacitor and added Freon. Unit worked for two days.
On 08/10/08 technician indicated all Freon had leaked out. Discovered the outside unit had multiple pinholes in the coil, in different. The technician further indicated that this section of the unit could not be fixed or replaced, ie. the entire unite had to be replaced.
This system had a five year-limited warranty and two months after the warranty expired the unit failed.

Review:
I have a Payne Central Air unit. It was a home warranty replacement for
the original unit. The original unit was a product of Payne's parent
company. The original's compressor literally blew out. a factory weld on
the side and all freon leaked. It was 4 years old btw. The new
Payne model that was installed is on its second compressor and 4th
capacitor. It is now not working again and I’m awaiting HVAC service
from a company I called. Save yourself time/money/stress and buy from a
different company. This one produces scrap metal.
