Here is my two cents take it for what it costs you. Why buy a Mercedes when a Ford or Chevy will do, for instance I see
Rudd, Rheem and Mitsubishi mentioned in other replies. Those are name brands and probably no question they are good. However, if you ever see a certain brand advertised on TV someone ..you.. are in part paying for that. My 1st home I had living in Kansas built in the 70s in a subdivision that for whatever reason was not piped with NG, so all electric. It had a Carrier heat pump which seemed fairly complex the compressor was in a closet downstairs with the air handler. It came to the point that the system would not defrost during the defrost cycle. After a few checks and recharge the system it was determined to be time to replace. Someone I trusted who was an electrician in our church recommended a local independent contractor who sold a brand named Temp Star. He said there are factories producing these units and they may put 3-4 or more names on the same units. I do not know for sure but I would almost bet the guy in Iowa who mentioned the brand Climate Master is probably the same scenario. The gentleman installed it and it ran well the remaining 6-8 years we lived in the house. This was in the 90s, I do not remember exactly but I did wait for him to be able to get a unit with a higher Seer efficiency rating I think it was 13. It certainly pulled more heat out of the winter time outdoor air and the A/C part cooled much better than the old Carrier. I checked a random Maine zip code 04240 and a Temp Star installer was available in that area.
