Matching Furnace and Air Conditioning Upgrade in Bensalem, PA

PROBLEM: Our homeowners ran into constant problems with their old air conditioner and had enough of it when they started to remodel their basement.

SOLUTION: ECI installed a brand new Trane air conditioner and Trane furnace to ensure that both systems run perfectly with one another. Our homeowners also chose to use financing which allowed them to enjoy their comfort now and pay later.

Our homeowner, Virginia, was making renovations in her home when her handyman, Adam noticed they were having trouble with their existing Trane air conditioning system. Adam gave them our phone number to see what ECI could do during a free estimate for them. During this free estimate, our homeowners were originally looking to replace only their AC with questions about other AC options such as Carrier. 

We discussed the dangers of pairing mismatched systems in their home, since their furnace was also a Trane. Mismatched HVAC units lead to problems such as decreased efficiency, reduced comfort, voided warranties, and shorter lifespan.

The Importance of Matching  Furnaces and Air Conditioners  For a Reliable System

After some discussion, our homeowners decided to replace both their furnace and air conditioner to upkeep the comfort in their home. During the installation, we found that there was a kinked line, which was a major contribution to the previous problems they had with their air conditioning system.  Check out her upgraded systems below!

Trane XR 15 Single-Stage Air Conditioner 

Our customers will notice several benefits of their new air conditioning system. Check out these seven advantages of upgrading!

High energy efficiency

The XR15 is designed to provide excellent energy efficiency, which can help reduce your energy consumption and lower your utility bills. It features a SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) rating of up to 16, indicating its ability to cool your home efficiently.

Single-stage cooling

The Trane XR15 Air Conditioner operates using a single-stage compressor, which means it runs at a constant speed. While it may not offer the same level of precise temperature control as two-stage or variable-speed models, it still delivers reliable cooling performance and is generally more affordable.

Durable construction

Trane is known for manufacturing durable and reliable HVAC equipment, and the XR15 is no exception. It features a durable steel cabinet and a corrosion-resistant, powder-coat paint finish, ensuring long-lasting performance and protection against the elements.

Quiet operation

The XR15 is designed to operate quietly, minimizing disruptive noise levels both inside and outside your home. This is achieved through features like a compressor sound insulator and an integrated fan system that reduces noise levels during operation.

Environmentally friendly

Trane products, including the XR15, are designed with a focus on environmental sustainability. The unit utilizes R-410A refrigerant, which is more eco-friendly and does not contribute to ozone depletion.

Compatibility with Trane ComfortLink™ II control

The XR15 can be paired with the Trane ComfortLink™ II communicating control, allowing for advanced system monitoring and control. This control system provides enhanced comfort and energy efficiency by coordinating and optimizing the operation of various HVAC components.

Warranty coverage

Trane offers a limited warranty on the XR15 air conditioner, providing coverage for parts and compressors. Warranty terms may vary, so it's important to review the specific details provided by the manufacturer or authorized dealer.

Trane Two-Stage, Constant Torque Gas Furnace  

Not only will Virginia and her family experience cooling comfort, but their new furnace will keep them warm and save them money all winter long. Check out these eight benefits!

Two-stage heating

The Trane two-stage constant Torque gas furnace operates in two stages, allowing it to adjust its heating output based on the heating demand. In milder weather, the furnace operates in the lower stage, providing more energy-efficient and consistent heating. In colder weather, it automatically switches to the higher stage for increased heating capacity.

This furnace is equipped with a Constant Torque ECM (Electronically Commutated Motor) motor. ECM motors are highly efficient and can adjust their speed based on the heating requirements. The Constant Torque ECM motor provides consistent airflow, quiet operation, and energy savings compared to traditional blower motors.

Enhanced comfort

The two-stage heating capability of the furnace contributes to enhanced comfort by reducing temperature swings. It helps maintain a more consistent and comfortable indoor temperature throughout your home.

Quiet operation

Trane furnaces are designed with noise reduction in mind. The Constant Torque ECM motor and other noise-reducing features contribute to quieter operation, minimizing disruptive noise levels in your home.

Efficient fuel utilization

The Trane two-stage constant Torque gas furnace is built for high fuel efficiency, which means it effectively utilizes the fuel it consumes to generate heat. This can help lower your energy bills and reduce your environmental impact.

ComfortLink™ II compatible

The Trane two-stage constant Torque gas furnace is compatible with Trane's ComfortLink™ II communicating control system. This allows for advanced system monitoring, diagnostics, and control, optimizing the performance of your heating system for increased comfort and energy efficiency.
