Thanks, coalkirk. It means a lot when someone with your experience recommends Trane. I appreciate your help!

My old house in Ohio had a heat pump from the 70's , the compressor went (R-22) simple replaced it added 2 TXV's in the system and a hot gas bypass . it cost around $800.00 but well worth it. And I guarantee it was just as efficient as these new units
