Of the ones you have listed, I’d go with the 14 seer Amana. Higher seer ratings are due to higher operating pressures and thinner metals in the coils….both of which make them prone to leakage when they get older.

Can you provide some data on this?

Can I order a lower seer unit from somewhere up north? Does the law prohibit selling them down here or prohibit them being here at all?

I have had a Trane in my last two houses with 0 problems with the unit itself.

Their new stuff is garbage. Had a coil fail at 4 years and it only had a 3 year warranty. Both trane and in installer told me to get fricked. Both piece of shite companies.

Not 100% on this, but I believe you'd have to find a "on the side guy" to install a lower SEER than LA requires, or he could lose his license.
