Trane XL20i Heat Pump Price
Trane delivers top of the line heat pumps like the Trane XL20i for those who seek the ultimate in comfort and performance. The XL20i offers some of the best efficiencies in the industry and will dramatically reduce energy usage. Andy in Bern, Idaho sent us a Trane XL20i heat pump price by accessing our easy to use Share an HVAC price form. Here’s what he had to say.
“I’ve moved around a lot and have never seen the temperature extremes that are experienced in this part of Idaho – hot summers and very cold winters. That translates into a lot of cooling and heating so the only route that made sense in our new home was to go with a super high efficiency unit like the Trane XL20i heat pump. As we looked into HVAC prices we discovered the local electric company is offering credits for high efficiency heat pumps and coupled with the federal energy tax credits we’ll save about $1,800 on the system. Plus our bills should be pretty low going forward despite the climatic conditions. I was attracted to the Trane XL20i because it offers:
- The 19.0 SEER for cooling and 9.0 HSPF for heating are way above minimum Energy Star requirements.
- Qualifies for the federal energy efficiency tax credit.
- R410A refrigerant is more efficient than older refrigerants as well as being eco-friendly.
- Dual ClimaTuff compressors: One to maintain low-level cooling and the second for more extreme heat.
- Comfort-R technology for constant air flow which keeps the temperature balanced and reduces humidity in humid climates.
- Multi-stage fan runs on low the majority of the time for quieter operation.
- ComfortLink Communications II compatible.
- Telephone Access Module allows for remote temperature control.
- Compatible CleanEffect advanced air purifier for more efficient air filtering.
- WeatherGuard top and DuraTuff pan offer protection that is corrosion-resistant.
- Trane warranty covers the compressors for 12 years, all other parts for 10 years and labor for one year. Other HVAC components are covered for 10 years when installed as part of a complete Xli Comfort system.
Here is the bid we went with on this system:
Trane XL20i 4 ton heat pump with 48,000 Btu heating capacity, matching Trane gas furnace and coil, $8,189
Installation: $4,000
Total: $12,189
With this complete system I’m confident I’ll get 15-20 years of reliable service and the lowest possible utility bills. It took the team of 3 more than a day and a half to install the equipment. An additional technician came when they were nearly complete and he spent more than 2 hours testing the equipment, making precise adjustments and working to fine tune its functioning for the highest possible efficiency. I felt like I got a high-tech piece of equipment that is in perfect synch, like the engine of a Ferrari.”
That’s not a bad analogy Andy. You do have a technologically advanced unit. And it sounds like the qualified contractor you hired did a great job. It’s a reminder to all that when you are shopping for the right heat pump and the best heat pump prices, the bottom line is proper installation. It’s worth paying more to get the best in order to maximize your system’s performance and save the most on energy costs in the next 1-2 decades.
