Some quick info about hvac brands

When it comes to your household heating and air system, selecting the right brand can be a real hassle if you don't know exactly what you're looking for.  FYI, almost every major manufacturer makes multiple brands - and in almost every case, different brands of equipment made by the same manufacturer are identical except for the color and/or the logo sticker.  The list of major brands is as follows:

1. American Standard also makes Trane.
2. Carrier also makes Bryant, Payne, Day & Night, ICP, Heil, Tempstar, Comfortmaker, Arcoaire, Keeprite
3. York makes Luxaire, Coleman, Evcon.
4. Nordyne also makes Philco, Gibson, Westinghouse, Frigidaire, Tappan, Gibson, Intertherm, Miller.
5. Rheem also makes Ruud.
7. Goodman also makes Amana.


Perhaps what is actually more important than the brand you choose is who you get to do the installation.  There is a very thorough process that any good hvac business worth its salt will do to make sure it is the right system for your home and that it is installed correctly.  Here at Environmental, we employ NATE certified technicians and installers to ensure that you get the most knowledgeable and technically proficient service possible.
