It’s remarkable how a single unit, when equipped and set up properly, can heat/cool an entire house that large and be so efficient when doing so. Modern hvac has come a long way. My parents have a 2 story but it has 2 separate systems. Well done on the install!

Installed a 4 ton XV20i in my house last October. It replaced a 2.5 ton XR10 that was woefully undersized for the house. I got the whole home electronic filter and a UV sanitizer installed. I love this system. In this blistering heat here in South Texas this year, This system has kept my house at a steady 72 without fuss. My old system would run almost 24/7 just to keep the house at 77 under the same conditions. My power bill is now about 1/2 less with the new system. (about 150-200 less so far during these hot months)
@santiagodraco Жыл бұрын
Just had my new XV20i system installed yesterday (4 ton, previous was 3.5 Rheem that was about 18 years old) and I am in love. Keeping the home stable at 73 through a peak of 98 outside today. Power consumption (I have a SPAN panel and can track) is so far about 1/2 the draw of the old system, maybe even less. Amazing! Just super thrilled with the system. It's expensive but I think it will be so worth it, especially given the climate change we are seeing and the hotter summers here in Texas. Added a Reme Halo LED and 2 extra returns (for 2 rooms that ran hot). Happy camper here!

I believe this structure has many issues with temperature balance. Zoning can make a big difference in comfort and can save on utilities if paired with a variable BTU unit. I was born a poor boy thought like a poor boy my whole life. I have a hunch this neighborhood has many 70k automobiles parked in the drive ways. If 13k can make these crazy condos livable then it will be a bargain. Stop thinking like me and sell yourself at a higher value because you're worth it.

I have seen other Trane installations go for many years (10+) with zero or close to zero problems, and the outdoor top covered unit is really good for reducing debris / rain / snow from getting inside the unit.
