Well, our 4.5 year old unit has bit the dust. Bad coils or condenser and compressor.While it's under parts warranty, labor to repair is going to be $1000+. The mfgr is supposed to be sending parts, but they can't tell us when.....
The existing unit is a 3.5 to, 10 SEER Goodman single package heat pump, electric heat. My repair guy called it a cheap unit (came with the house) and has quoted over $4k to replace with a Rheem, don't know the specs.
I don't want to sing over a grand in it if it has a likelyhood of dying again in 6 months.
Is Goodman a decent unit? What reasonable cost units would you recommend? Should I just fix this one an take the chance? As one might suspect, $4k to replace a <5yr old unit isn't in the budget....
The House is ~2000 sq. feet.
