 |  "replacing heat pump"
, posted Sun 11 May 21:30  
I currently have a Carrier 2ton heat pump with a 2 1/2 ton air handler, 12 seer, and 8.2 HSPF. I need to replace it asap with something comparable or better.
I am looking for recommendations on comparable or better systems.
Also, I am looking for opinions on whether I should spend the money on a Puron system. I am very much "old school" and am hesitant to spend the money on a Puron system while these systems have not been around very long. Any advice on simply moving from Freon to Puron?
Thanks,
DougandLiz

They been around for quite some time. If you purchase a R22 machine you are throwing your money down the drain. The price of 22 is going up week by week.

I agree with Jojo, avoid R22 since the cost is rising faster than gasoline. It is due to be phased out.
You should always replace the fancoil when replacing a heat pump.
