Trane Heat Pumps, Reliable Heating & Air Conditioning
Durability and reliability is one of the most important things when choosing a heat pump, and Trane heat pumps are built for the long haul. They are designed to give you years of hassle free heating and cooling.
Heat pumps made by Trane are second to none when it comes to heating and cooling efficiency. Some of their current models are, on the lower end, the XR14, and XR13, These are standard efficiency units but are light years ahead of heat pumps of a generation ago. On the high end, are the models XL19i, XL16i. The mid range of Trane heat pumps features the XL15i and XL 14i. No matter what unit you choose expect it to be highly efficient and reliable.
The efficiency rating of Trane heat pumps rivals any on the market ranging from 6.8 to 9.85 HPSF and 10.00 to 17.65 (SEER RATING)
One of the most often asked questions is what is a typical heat pump installation? A Trane heat pump unit would come standard with a digital thermostat, which is 100% programmable. They also come with air handlers, which to circulate the airflow, the heat pump itself and an air cleaner which is used to filter out dust and other pollutants as the air is circulated.
The exact equipment that comes with your Trane heat pump is really up to you Some option may not be available in all areas of the country, and labor charges will vary depending on the contractor you hire to do the installation. Never attempt to install a heat pump yourself.
The first generation of heat pumps have earned a very poor reputation for heating. You've probably heard people telling you stories of how their heat pump blows out cold air in the winter. Well, there is some truth to these stories, but these stories only apply to the old generation of heat pumps. The latest generation of Trane heat pumps can rival gas heating in almost any climate except the coldest climates.
My wife and I were recently in the market for a new heat pump as our old faithful had almost 20 years on it, and it was really chugging along to keep the use cool in the summer and warm in the winter. We wanted to replace it before it made us replace it. We did a lot of research and decided to install a Trane XR13. while it is on the lower end of the efficiency scale, it is so much better than our old heat pump. IN winter, the air actually comes out warm.
