Thanks in advance all,
Got a 2 ton unit that I am going to replace. Thinking of going with a RUUD.
Just want to throw this out there for any pro’s and con’s of that brand???
The 14 year old (10 SEER) Payne has become a Pain! Looking to go 15 SEER.
Advice, experience would be very welcome!

15 seer is a great choice, not really a fan of the Rudd/Rheem products but they work out good for some people.
Installation has way more to do with performance of the system than the name brand.
Read around most all of the various labels have the same warranty, higher than 15 seer numbers come at a high cost with very little additional results. Few manufactures but many labels.
I put in American Standard and love it. It’s made by Trane and has the same warranty but less money. I got the 16 seer and gas furnace for about $6600.00 installed.
2X on the install affecting the life of the unit. Some questions are --how many microns does the installer pump the evaporator and line set down to? (needs to be no more than 500 microns) Does he fill the line set with nitrogen while brazing? Does he install an external filter dryer on the liquid line?
Good install= long life.

Double N - i sell Goodman and Amana brand. Have sold everything from Carrier / Bryant / Payne to York / Frasier Johnston / Coleman. Never been fan of Ruud or Rheem. 15 Seer is good choice, but make sure to get reputable installer. DO NOT let a fly by night installer do the work. That could extend the life substantially if the install is done right. PM or inbox me if I can help in anyway.

Just had a Heil 3.5 ton 15 seer gaspack installed - replaced my 1992 unit, instantly saved $80 on heating, looking for over $100 on cooling. Installed for $5,500 with a $300+/- rebate from SCE&G.
Local Charleston installer, recommended by a board member that flips houses… I would use him again.
Wow, Thanks all for the advice. Got a quote for $3950, Tax included. Then I will get another $200 back from SCE & G. This fella came highly recommended from a friend there in Beaufort.
I will follow up with him on some off y’alls suggestions!!

Got it installed last friday…fella dropped price to $3750. This included Honeywell 8000 thermostat.

Wow, $3750 is a cheap price for any brand of 15 seer. Heck of a deal.
My price on a 2 ton split rudd hp is 3,200. I need to start advertising in chucktown.
Honeywell 8000 is a nice stat though. Never let anyone sell you that braeburn trash.
