"Ruud Air Conditioning -- a VERY reliable brand!"
I have owned my Ruud Air Conditioner for more than nine years. I have been VERY satisfied with it. It has consistently cooled(and heated in winter) our home in a timely manner. We have only had to have one repair in all these years. Last summer the air conditioner needed to have its Motor Run Capacitor replaced. It was a fairly inexpensive part to replace, and so simple that we were talked through the changing of the part over the phone by a knowledgeable friend!! The summers here get VERY hot, and it is important to my family to be able to cool the house quickly, and to keep it cool. Our Ruud does that well! The first few years owning this air conditioner our house was not insulated well, but it still did the job! And after all these years, I see no sign of it slowing down. I would very confidently recommend the Ruud Air Conditioner to a friend!

"Very Satisfied"
We have had this unit for 14 years. We did have it properly serviced and cleaned every year. We have had very reasonable utility bills. During the yearly service, the unit has never needed freon to be added. It is also very quiet. It has never needed to be repaired. The unit was retired due to a broken heat exchanger after 14 years of reliable service. We are very pleased with this unit.

"Lasted 19 Years"
There must be something good about these Ruuds. Our just went out after 19 years. 2x/year preventative maintenance is all we ever did.

"Year 27 and counting"
Our 27 year old a/c was manufactured in 09/1984 and still keeps us frigid, but it is time to replace it with a more energy efficient one (plus we have a small leak in the outside coils so we get a recharge every 4 years...)

"Central Air"
I bought my House and moved in .. in 1990. RUUD system was installed by builder. High Efficiency Unit about 9 SEER I believe.I had problems 2 years ago and had to replace the outside fan motor....cost $ 400.00 and some change because they don't make the motor anymore. 2 ton unit. Technicians kept bleeding off my Freon and charging me for a pound...R-22. System has ran for 21 years with a hard start capacitor and same compressor. South Florida is hot. I want a new Trane but RUUD looks pretty inviting.

"Installed right"
if these units are installed right they will last a long time read all the reviews seems like there all leaks if they would have been welded right from the first install you would not have had this problem alot of these problems should fall back on the company installing them

"Almost Bullet-Proof"
I moved into my house in 1995 and one of the first things I did was remove the YORK piece of junk system that came with the house and replaced it with all RUUD equipment. The person I bought the home from had the YORK system for 5 years and said that he had techs out from the A/C company on average 5 times a year for one problem or another. I didn't want to deal with the expense or hassle, so I chose RUUD since I had the same brand (RHEEM) in my previous home and had no issues whatsoever. I'd recommend RUUD equipment to anyone who doesn't want to worry about expensive parts and annoying breakdowns.

"WORKS IN A DOUBLR WIDE"
Almost everyone said it would not work in a doublewide because the ductwork was too small..but not so if properly installed. I did slightly modify duct with adding additional 12" duct tap from directly under unit to center of both runs of original ducts...heats and cools much better than Intertherm & much lower costs.

"They just keep running"
I have two Ruud units that are about 24 years old. Aside from a relay switch, or ants shorting out some circuity in the outside compressor, these units just keep on running. I try to make it a point to clean the coils every three or four years, whether they need it or not. I imagine they are about a Seer 6 or 8, and very inefficient by today's standards, but I certainly hate to replace something that is not broken.
