I hear good things about the equipment. Other installers say it's great. In my opinion, thats a lot of fancy stuff. Money saved on energy savings will be spent on repairs should something goes wrong. I do recomend the duel fuel set-up, but the three-stage, two stage, Variable speed,...etc is a bit of overkill. I would install perhaps a sixteen seer 95 percent single stage equipment.

There have been a few times in which performing service on the v.s. motor or some other part broke down. The problem was availability of parts from suppliers. Just beware.
