Review:
I had an Amana 18 seer heat pump and high efficient propane furnace
installed 07/29/09. I was sold on the warranty and quietness of the
unit. a/c worked great, very quit. Fired up the heat pump 10/10/09 for
the 1st time and the compressor locked up. I called service and they
showed up in 2 hrs. I was told the compressor was junk, and they would
replace the whole unit. I'm hoping it was just a fluke....

Review:
My Amana Heat Pump Model asz14 was installed on 8/25/06. It provided
cooling during summer and heat during winter. However, in less than a
year it started to give less cool air during summer and less warm air
during the winter. When I called Clark & Rush, who installed the system,
for service, they discovered that the unit has lost a lot of
refrigerant. And I was further told that there was a leak somewhere and
for them to find the leak, they will have to charge me $800+. So I said
no, and got another air conditioning mechanic to look for the leak. It
cost me half of what Clark and Rush was chargning me to find the leak.
Apparently, the leak was not in the evaporator or the line going to the
evaporator but at the heat pump. To make a long story short, the Clarke
and Rush people, came, charged the system with refrigerant as well as a
dye they said would help them locate where the leak is coming from. They
returned after a month or so and indicated that the leak was coming from
the braze of the line that is connected to the heat pump. After they
fixed the braze, they charged the unit with refrigerant. This was on
11/11/08. About September of 2009, I noticed that the heat pump is not
giving cold air or warm air. My a/c mechanic checked the system and had
to charged it with 7 lbs. of refrigerant. Apparently, the heat pump is
still leaking. Now, even after being charged, the system is still not
giving cold or warm air. I should have gotten Carrier instead which is
what I had before and had very few problems with it.

Review:
I am a electrical contractor, I have wired in many differant heat pumps
for over 15 years. After seeing all that I had to choose from, I chose a
Amana asz16 Heat Pump. I live in the Northwest and a/c is not that
important but heating is. Amana is only average in cooling cost, but the
heating is the best I could find. hspf of 9.75 is great.

Review:
I have a Amana Heat Pump installed 14 years ago, and I have had only
one problem, I had a mouse living in the heat pump. I just have it
checked once a year and it runs great. I was told to start planning on
buying a new one because of the age of the unit, but it runs to good to
replace it yet.

I reviewed and considered all major hvac brands. We selected a High
Efficiency 96% variable speed gas furnace and a heat pump it lowered our
utility bills by a 1/2 and are much more comfortable than ever before.
Recommend them and the dealer we used to all our friends

Review:
I had a another brand Unit for about 15 years, It went out on me, a
friend suggested an Amana, not ever having had one, I was in doubt. They
installed it and about 6 yrs later the blower motor went out. Called the
installer that had gone out of business!! Called around an could not
find anyone to service it, finally called a service tech guy, he charged
me $800.00 for a $85.00 blower motor. I then found out about the 10 year
warranty!! Bottom line- Amana- Verrrry poor service system, no techincal
support direct from the company!!! Do yourself a favor n stick to a
large brand company that has its own service team or you just might
regret it!!! The actual heat pump is ok- Service sucks!!!!

Review:
I was in Iraq when my wife told me that the heat pump went out. It was a
8 year old Trane and the compressor went out again. They wanted $3600 to
replace it. I just did it two years ago. I searched on line and found
Amana that had a lifetime compressor warranty. I told my wife to find a
Amana dealer, she found two in the area and had one installed. She told
me that when it got over 100 last week, that she was nice and cool at
70. I just wish I could get one over installed over here.

Review:
I believe unit was installed when house was built in 1984. Never has
required any service work in 14 years of ownership. Filters are changed
regulary and condensor coil washed once each year. I am considering
replacing indoor and outdoor unit because it is 25 years old. I think I
must have the best (reliable) heat pump ever made.

Review:
I moved into a house in 2006 that had a brand new Amana Heat Pump and
Goodman air handler installed that same year by the previous owner. It
is now 2009, and I have spent more than $1800 repairing the units with
more money about to be soaked into it today (parts are covered under
warranty, however labor isn't). So far, I've replaced the indoor coil
and reversing valve. Today, I think the compressor is bad. If it is,
I'm having the hvac company rip that piece of "you know what" out and
put in a Trane.
