    I have a 13 year old unit that leaks Freon and freezes during the summer cooling months. The dealer says he cannot find the leak and that it may be leaking into the ground loop system. He wants to replace the entire unit @ $13k+. This is more than I paid to have the entire system with ductwork, loop and DSH installed.

    Is there any other option?

    13 years old, should still be running strong, but with tax credits, you might get better value (higher performing unit, new warranty) than trying to find a tiny leak.

    you might be able to DIY for half that and still take the tax credit

    I was researching replacement units (not WF) I could buy as a Homeowner and have a contractor re-duct the unit and found Geo Cool. any experience with that brand?

    0 labor warranty. I would suggest something that is supported locally. i.e. Climatemaster.
