"Great Equipment"
Installed in 2001. New home construction. Completed installation myself. Absolutely no problems for the first 10 years. Hit by lightning in spring 2011. Replaced control boards in both furnace and condensing unit. Now ECM motor has failed in the condensing unit. Could be normal wear and tear but lightning sure didn't help any. Anyway I have no complaints and would buy one again.

"3 Ton Trane 14 Seer Split AC System"
Matched the above with a 4fxfh036ac3cha coil which replaced my 1998 model Trane system. The coil had gone bad on the old system, so I decided to replace the entire system with a more efficient model with the R410 refrigerant. I had a very experienced HVAC installer put it in for me and so far I have been very happy with it. Ten year warranty on AC, coil, and compressor. He also resized a plenum box chamber for me to smooth out the airflow throughout the house, as the original one was too small and the airflow was uneven. Temp. wise, I run 75 degrees at night and 77 degrees during the day. I live north of Houston, Texas and this system does a good job of keeping our 2-story house cool and the humidity reasonably low. So far, we have been very pleased with Trane products.

"Nice and Comfortable, No worries."
We're going on 2 years with our Trane Split-system ac -ac only, no heat. I did hours and hours of research prior to going with Trane. My installer actually only sells and installs Trane systems now because of issues in the past with Goodman, Carrier, etc. Granted, not every unit from the factory is perfect, I realize this but when my installer started getting multiple call backs from Customers after installing other brands, he'd have to fight with the ac vendor to get parts. This all changed when he went to Trane. Granted, he had some minor issues here and there but they are significantly less with Trane. Do yourself a favor and check the installer ratings/references and when you get quoted, go with Variable speed motor. We got a Trane xb13 (Because the energy savings from the xb13 to xb14 wasn't substantial enough) and the Hyperion XL tam7 handler. We couldn't be happier with our Trane system.

"Two tons high efficiency."
Installation in 1994 . Ran great since with just two recharges in the last 2 years. For 19 years not bad.

"Top notch"
There isn`t a central a/c brand out there that doesn't have a bad review. $10,000 goes to some one that can show me one. A lot depends on the contractor. This unit does the job. It's 119 in the summer in AZ. In 2007 they sold out to Ingersol Rand. Has to be serviced twice year for free. It's a crap shoot on any product or brand. We had them all replaced in the past year. TV-washer-refrigerator-toilet. The digital thermostat is good. Had it replaced though. Two compressors are energy efficient.

"Cool Man!!!"
It was 104 outside & my 15 year old Trane xl-15i electric air- conditioning system has my house at 75 inside! I bought a new Trane XV-80 gas furnace 15 years ago as a package as well. I change my filters every 60 days and that is it! Never had any problems with my Trane system! I guess they were right when the mechanic said to me "It is hard to stop a TRANE" The company that put my system in also gave me all the required permints and had the county inspector take a look at the instalation as well. When the m

"Great Results"
Since its most common for people to complain when taking the time to enter a review. I thought I would add some balance. We replaced a Carrier System that was less than 8 years old. The entire Carrier System was a nightmare. We've had the Trane System 4 years now. It's been perfect. The Installer has been fantastic (they did not install the original system). The number one problem with hvac systems is the quality of the installation company and the service they provide. The installer noted almost a dozen mistakes with the installation of our original system that they said contributed to the issues we had. These issues included Return Air Duct not sufficient, electrical wiring issue with a/c compressor, a/c tonnage too low for house load, leaking drainage from a/c that was rusting the burner and causing issues with blower, thermastate was in bad place in house(too much direct air), etc... I know no brand is perfect, what you want to be sure is that you find a reputable installer who will backup their installation.

"Many good years..."
After 26 years it is now time to replace our Trane... after reading all these reviews on here I am at a complete loss of what brand to go with. Seems like every brand has bad reviews. They sure don't make them like they used to.

"Just 3 Service calls in 33 years"
Never had yearly tuneups. Repairs made were minor. I now need to replace this unit but fear that they don't make them like they used to. This is a concern based on the reviews on this web site

"It's not all in the brand"
I have owned a Trane 14 seer a/c for ten years and it works great that's not because it's a Trane it's because I installed it correctly. 90% of failures are because of bad installation. The Trane unit has the best out of box quality dollar for dollar that I have seen in the 30 years I've been a service tech. Heavy sturdy cabinet spine fin coil and tranes compressor is the best around. They are quiet and efficient.
