What Do I Need To Know?

Here are some simple guidelines to help you through the process. Finding the ideal system starts with asking the right questions.



Step 1: Consider your home


Before you talk to your local independent Trane dealer, take a look at your current home environment and identify your comfort needs. Start by answering the following questions:

  1. Do your heating and air conditioning bills seem too high?
  2. Are any of your current HVAC system units too noisy?
  3. Do you have a problem with humidity in the summer? Dry air in the winter?
  4. Are there rooms that are always too hot or too cold?
  5. Do you have pets or do any family members suffer from allergies?
  6. Do cooking odors linger?
  7. Do you want more control over when and how your system runs?
  8. Do you want a system that’s easy to maintain?
  9. Is your current system still covered by a warranty?



Step 2: Figure out your system


Get a better of idea of which system can best meet your home comfort needs by using the Trane Comfort zone finder.



Step 3: Make an appointment with an independent Trane dealer


After considering your current situation and home system, your Trane dealer can help custom design and fit a system to meet your unique comfort needs. To prepare for the appointment:


Take inventory of your system

Make a note of the model numbers on your current equipment. The model number and serial number should be found on a nameplate on the back of your unit. Search your files for the available paperwork.

Be specific about your needs

Be ready to talk to your Trane dealer about where you live, the structure of your home, and any specific comfort needs. This is especially important if you're in the market for the first time or installing a new system.

Get dealer analysis

Ask the dealer to perform a thorough structural analysis of your home to determine the proper system type and size for your home.

Think about financing

Remember, you're investing in your year-round comfort—not to mention the long-term comfort of you and your family. Ask your Trane dealer about various financing options being offered by the dealership.



Step 4: Install your Trane system


Ask your Trane dealer to program the thermostat setting for you, go over the owner’s manual, and walk you through the (minimal) maintenance you can do yourself. Also, don’t forget to review the limited warranty information for your specific models.
