York Versus Carrier Air Conditioners

York Versus Carrier Air ConditionersYork Versus Carrier Air Conditioners - Every manufacturer has their own parts system and sometimes these parts are readily available aftermarket and sometimes the parts are proprietary and can only be purchased through the manufacturer of that equipment. Carrier is one of the HVAC manufacturers that has proprietary parts and sometimes you will pay a premium for those parts.

The manufacturer can hold the customer hostage especially when it comes to repairing the unit.
