Review:
"The best unit in the market"
If I was to buy a heat pump based on these reviews, I would be very disappointed. I can't believe that every brand has a negative rating!! Rheem, Trane, American Standard, Carrier these are all top of the line heat pumps. I personally witnessed 30-40 year old heat pumps of these same name brands that were still running. More than just buying a heat pump, people need to do their homework on the contractor that's installing it. P.S. Watch out for the big companies.
Other RQNA Reviews
Homeowners have little to say about the RQNA on the web. Among the few reviews, one contractor on hvac-talk.com recommends this product to a homeowner comparing units, pointing out that this particular unit is easy to service and provides efficient heating.
A homeowner on justanswer.com poses a question about a RQNA heat pump with a heat strip that blows air, but no heat. An expert replies with suggestions for how to check for a faulty thermostat, but soon theorizes that the unit may have a faulty motor. The pair soon realize that it will require an expert’s review to solve this problem.
Overall, consumer forms such as hvac-talk.com or doityourself.com recommend Rheem HVAC equipment to shoppers, stating Rheem produces quality equipment designed to provide long-lasting performance. However, these sites add, proper installation of the correctly sized unit and regular maintenance generally are more important than the brand installed.
