Review:
Purchased a Trane xl 1200 in 2001. Installer returned a month later to
install an updated part that I was not aware needed to be replaced. The
part was under warranty, no cost to me. Trane handeled it! Now its
August 2010. Unit is not cooling. its 105 in Dallas! Called a different
service company. Unfornately,the person did not know what he was
doing.had to have them come back three times to solve the problem. each
time it cost me more money. finally, a diferent tech came out and it ws
the drain pan was the problem, not for what I had paid for the other two
visits from the tech person.

Review:
The unit was part of the builder's package when the house was
constructed 12 years ago. Since that time, I have had only one problem
about 5 years ago when the compressor motor had to be replaced. That was
covered in full by my home service contract. It cools in summer and
heats in the winter using electricity. I am going to replace it this
year due to incentives provided by Florida Power and Light, The I.R.S.
and the installer. There is nothing currently wrong with the unit, but a
newer one should be more cost efficient (10ser vs 16ser).

Review:
Purchased a Trane unit 5 years ago. The coil developed a leak. Was told
that because of cheap manufacture using aluminum coils could not be
repaired. The coil was covered under warranty but the labor wasn't. That
was over $800. Dealers love Trane because they make a lot of money
replacing coils. The servicemen who came to do the job said they did not
like Trane.

Review:
Same story as the guy below, both compressors on my two stage ac unit
went down. Parts are on back order. Will be at least 5 days to repair. Meanwhile, it is a 105 in Allen, Texas.

Review:
Wish I could get more information from the Smiths. We live in Raleigh
and need the contact number for a regional Trane rep - please post if
you can. Almost same problem. Less than 5 years old, air handler dies
every summer. 2nd time this summer, same part. Carolina Comfort is not
very responsive. This is obviously a bad air handler or they installed
it wrong. Would like Trane to stand behind their products and
certification they give to their dealers?

Review:
I agree that it seems most people only write bad reviews. I had a xl16i 4 ton heat pump installed last Fall with an xc95m modulating furnace. The entire system has worked to perfection and we have not had one issue so far. There are several Trane systems intalls in my area and everyone I talked to loves their Trane equipment. I read that they are the only company that makes their own compressor and how long they last. I think if yours is prematurely failing, you may want to look at who you had it installed. Did they evacuate the system properly? Is the system properly sized and installed? The equipment is only as good as the installer you choose. I looked for a long time Trane dealer and checked references. Everyone should!!!

Review:
I've owned my home for 17 years. It still has the original Trane air
conditioner from 1971! That makes it 39 years old. It has only needed
repair once for a leaky valve. Last year, the service man told me it is
still working as good as new. He did convince me that a newer model
would be much more efficient so I'm shopping and comparing.

Review:
Would never buy this brand again. AC fails 2-3 times per season and
repairs take one week average.

Review:
A new Trane system less than 2 years old starts leaking. The condenser
has a 10 year warranty but over 400 in labor to replace. Something must
be wrong if the system fails that soon. I think the installer did
something after I complained about racist remarks he was making.

Review:
I have owned a Trane system for 22 years and found that it is normally
the equipment but it's installing the equipment. That goes with anyone's
equipment. I have been in the field for 44 years from an installer,
service tech and engineer. 99% of all problems start with the installer
and installing company. Make sure you hire the best.
