   Most of these are OEMed by either Midea or Gree. This one looks like a Midea.

   The specs are not too bad:

   Usually these off brand units should be about $1500 to $2000 cheaper than a comparable Fujitsu/Mitsubishi.

   Before picking the unit, make sure to go through the calculations here to check sizing based on previous fuel usage:

   You generally want these right sized, meaning very close to actual load to get the best efficiency out of them. Plus a right sized unit is smaller/quieter/cheaper.

   Thanks Akos. I haven't done the sizing calculations - the Ashton Services Group recommended a 3 ton system as our house is about 2500 sq feet. The specs on the 2 ton system you sent above look a bit better in terms of the HSPF and SEER, and the air handler is even smaller.

   Hey @bc_chris did you ever get the 3 ton moovair installed?

   How's it working out? I've got a quote in hand for something very similar, so if it's not a weird thing to ask, I'd love to come and see (and hear!) it!

   I'll...bring chocolate? Or something?
