New Condensors At My Brother's Apartment

These 3 condensers replaced Trane units from 1984 like the 1 old one still there out of the 4.
The one Trane left is only about 6 years old so they kept it . this replacement is part of a major replacement project that's been going on in this particular building and this part of the building was one of the last parts to get replacements out of at least 50 or 60 furnaces and A/C's.

do these units use R22 refrigerant? Tempstar is made by ICP corp. (International Comfort Products) witch is owned/made by Carrier 5 stars and a favorite!

@xctome Yeah they're all R22.

stalker, a peeping tom. lol. youd think they would put in all the same kind of units ???

[gusherb94]

Yeah I'm paranoid about that.

They're all the same brand except for the slightly old Trane (2003) the New ones are Tempstar and to my surpise I don't think there all the same capacity, the one for my Brother's apartment is 1/12 ton and the other one next to it is physically larger, I think it might be 2 ton but that doesn't make sense as each apartment is identical.

were you there when they replaced those 1984 tranes?

The house we lived in, when I was younger in Elizabethtown, Kentucky had a GE Weathertron unit. I went by there last winter, and it's still there. I was shocked that it would last that long.

That Trane unit appears to be newer from the early 2000s.

[gusherb94]

Those units have been made since the early 70s they were made by G.E originally and were called the "Weathertron" series then in 1983 Trane bought out the G.E HVAC division and they relabeled all the G.E equipment to Trane. So this particular model of condenser was made largely unchanged for about 30 years, Trane discontinued that model around 2004.
