At Stienstra Heating and Cooling, we have been installing Rheem equipment for almost a year now and have not yet been disappointed in the quality or efficiency of any unit in the entire Rheem product line. As a contractor selling equipment to homeowners the key qualities I demand out of a product line are 1)reliability, 2)solid warranties and 3)name recognition.

Rheem delivers on all accounts. They are ranked by several independent testing agencies (including Consumer Reports) as the #1 most reliable manufacturer of residential heating and cooling equipment on the market. Rheem equipment experiences fewer breakdowns than Carrier, Lennox, Bryant, Trane, Goodman, Heil, etc. I would recommend a Rheem to anybody in the market for residential hvac equipment. And yes, I have a high-efficiency Rheem furnace installed in my own home and couldn't be happier with it.

I know this seems biased coming from an authorized Rheem dealer, but seeing as my name is on every single job I do, I don't settle for second-rate.
