Hello, Weare needing to replace a 22-year-old geothermal unit in a home We have been in now for a year. So We only are replacing the unit itself and have come down to two companies but their products are not the same. That's where I need help. One bid is for a Geocomfort YT048 install price(install price 1$11.500) The other unit is a climatemaster Install price (TXV-22 Tranquility System - $ 13,900.00) Do you know the better machine I have tried looking up but I cant tell which is the better model
Ask to see other installs or speak to other clients. Has the house had insulation upgrades? might be able to down size to 036 model and be more efficient. Closed loop? new circulation pump? Some new units come with pumps inside. I have the Climatemaster w/communicating thermostat and like that I can see info like entering and leaving water temps. DeSuperheater option? 2 hot water tank set up, instead of 1 tank.
Climatemaster. Nice markup for a day or 2 worth of work. I'm assuming direct replacement of course, no major mods or design changes.
