My home's HVAC unit has stopped working, and I'm currently facing financial constraints because I recently had to replace my car's alternator and fix my car's AC, not to mention the unexpected expenses associated with a funeral.

I'm planning to handle most of the repair work myself since I'm quite familiar with the process, having gradually replaced various components of my existing system over time.

I'm in search of a major brand, single-speed, 4-ton, 14 SEER2, R410A vertical gas unit that operates at 220 volts. (Please, no Goodman brand units.)

I have cash available and would appreciate either a delivery option or the option to meet in person at a convenient location.

good luck man. But it is September and cooler weather is on its way. A few window rattlers might be the ticket for a few more weeks.

I have a five ton american standard I will let go. I'm guessing it is a 2014 model that I unhooked and put in my warehouse in 2016 from a house I tore down. Would this work for you? I crimped all lines when disconnecting.

You're a brave and trusting soul to post your phone # on this forum.

yea I have a window unit for my bedroom but my face is peeling off trying to cook food or taking a dump in the bathroom. Big turnoff for girls too. Ask me how I know...

I know you're probably looking for local stuff, but HVAC direct may offer some solid discounts shipped to you if you can hold off with window units for a bit.

yea it seems most online sales are off brands. I don't have experience enough to trust them. I wanted a name brand in case I needed help down the road / parts / finish the install. I'm willing to spend extra for that but I might not have a choice.

Thanks for the tip. Trying to hold off going that route.

Not following here. Youre asking for a 4 ton which you say barely works and the guy is offering you a 5 ton for free and youre saying no.

What am I missing?

I have an open floor plan so I'll need multiple. My windows are horizonal opening so it makes it even more difficult to put a window unit in each. The one vertical window is a mini window.

Contractors who use non standard size doors, fridges, and windows need to be taken out back.

A 5 ton is too big and won't pull out enough moisture. I really need a 3 ton because my house is small but due to the age of house / insulation / cracks I can get away with a 4 ton.

I don't really understand the goodman hate. I'd go with anything I could find if it's this dire. Been running a base model goodman for 3 years with no issues other than it eats electricity
