"Great Furnace"
I am very happy with my Amana furnace. It appears from these reviews that anyone having problems with their Amana furnace is having them due to the installation not the furnace itself. People need to learn that you get what you pay for and if you pick the cheapest installer that doesn't put a lot of detail in their quotes you get a poor installation and it doesn't matter the brand of furnace as much as the installer. I liked Amana because its manufactured in the USA and because Goodman Manufacturing (that makes Amana furnaces) only makes heating and a/c equipment unlike some other companies that make other products (Carrier makes airplane engines, Whirlpool, Frigidaire) and others make other appliances. I wanted a company that specialized in making heating equipment and that made it in the USA that's why I picked Amana and I am glad I did.

"Great Furnace & AC!"
I had an Amana furnace and a/c system installed almost 6 years ago and love it. Its quiet and I've never had a problem. My gas and electric bill went down quite a bit after it was installed. Yesterday I heard my neighbor say he heard he needed a new furnace and I highly recommended Amana. I also recommended the company I used to install it too because I think that's half the issue when people aren't happy with their furnaces or a/c units.

"Amana Is Awesome, Best Investment !"
I have no idea how anyone gave a bad review to Amana, I replaced a very old gm Furnace (60s era) with the top of the line Hi-E Amana , I have saved at least $ 50. per month last winter (2010) and at least the same this past (2011) season ! Very quite, the ac is outstanding also. The best decesion I ever made.. My wife and I are very pleased and glad we choose Amana, and Gidich Heating & Air Conditioning (Lorain, Ohio) were very professional and we very happy with them as well. Great combo "Gidich & Amana"!!

"dogs peeing on A/C"
does someone have to beat you with a bat? Keep your dogs off the a/c no mater what. Your unit may have copper tubing like many other brands but they all have aluminum fins. when they are gone the unit may hold freon but will not cool properly because the air will be sucked through the hole and not through the fins where the heat is given up. Pressures and temperatures in an A/C unit correspond directly. The higher the temp the higher the pressure. High temp/press will kill your compressor before its time. There would be no way to accurately charge a unit in that condition. You'd be looking at another new unit.

"I Love my Amana"
I had two systems replaced in my home Upstairs was Trane system, downstairs Rheem system. The Trane developed leaks in the aluminum coils outside and the Rheem was so noisy I was ashamed to turn it on. They both worked just OK and were installed by the builder when the home was built a few years ago. Now I replaced both systems with new Amama 16 SEER 2-stage A/C units with matching Amana 95% AFUE furnaces in the attic. This was the best investment and I am so pleased in getting rid of the nasty Trane and Rheem units. I save over 50% on my utility bills and these new units are now so quiet inside and out its unbelievable. The installers were the best. It took them six days and worked like dogs. I replaced all the plastic flex ducts with metal ducts and now I have so much air in each room its amazing. I d really do believe that having good installers makes the difference. Amana is a great Product.

"My Amana Really Blows!!"
I had an Amana AMVC95 Furnace installed just a week ago. I chose the variable motor because the contractor said it would be quieter. My old furnace was about 31 years old. I can't say much since I just got the furnace, but what I noticed right away was the sound of the air flow. My old furnace must have had a much smaller blower. The contractor said that all new furnaces have larger blowers to work well with A/C. It's not terribly loud, just louder than my old furnace. I'll have to get used to it. The contractor was kind enough to install another cold air return duct. He also showed me that if you turn the grill covering the cold air return upside down, the air flow noise will be reduced. I do wish they still made a furnace with a smaller blower for those of us who don't have or want A/C. The Big Bad Wolf had a big blower too! Poor little pigs!

"Amana Nightmare"
I had a 15 year old furnace replaced with an Amana 95% variable speed unit. The sales rep went on and on about how the quality was second to none and the warranty being the best in the industry. I will sinmplify, all I have had is problems with it and it is 5 times louder than my original. Overall, I should have went with the American Standard unit and saved myself a great deal of pain. It seems now that I need to just spend th extra money and have this nightmare renoved from my home. I strongly recommend buyers to stay away from Amana/Goodman products. Note:It comes down to the installation company to a certain extent, afterwards its all dependant upon the system and how it was made!!!

"Sounds like a jet engine!"
Just replaced our 20 year old furnace with an 80% efficient Amana furnace. We were told it has great technology ... like a jet engine. I wish I could attach a sound bite to this posting ... because it SOUNDS like a jet engine. Installer came back and told us this is "normal" ... but we can hear this furnace - which is installed in our basement - while we are outside in our garage. Installer told us if we would have paid 50% more for the 95% efficient, that this unit would have been quiet. Not happy at all!!

"Never buy this furnace nothing but problems"
This is a very noisy furnace and doesn't give off much heat. Have had to have the motor replace on the exhaust after 5 years. Should have been replaced after 4 years but my son was able to keep it running an extra winter. For the price we payed for this furnace we would have been better off getting our old one fixed. It was in the house when we bought it and never had any problems and it was a very old furnace. As soon as I can save up enough money will have it replaced. Would not recommend Amana furnace to any one.
