Southern US = Heat pump or bust

Reliability ratings from consumer reports Five brands got a top rating of Excellent for satisfaction: Trane, American Standard, Bryant, Lennox, and Carrier. Armstrong and Ducane earned Very Good satisfaction ratings, as did Rheem and Ruud. The other 12 brands earned a rating of Good (average) for owner satisfaction. (None received a Fair or Poor rating.)

Lennox never fails, also if you can find a company that only deals with the brand you buy would be great for in the future when you will need repairs/cleaning
