I know this is a very general question but overall if installed correctly how is the Goodman heat pump quality ? I have a 24 year old Trane that is on its last legs and I have quotes for replacement from a Daikin dealer and an independent that gave a quote for a Goodman . Online reviews for what they are worth seem to suggest older Goodman ( 10 years ago ? ) were not so great but quality has greatly improved . I know Daikin purchased Goodman a while back and they share a manufacturing facility in Texas .

I am going to have a heat pump dual fuel installed with LP furnace as that is what I have now . Prices between the two vendors are within 500.00 of each other with a slight nod to Daikin with 12 year warranty vs Goodman with 10 . I am looking at 16-18 SEER units if that matters .

Daikin and Goodman are the same company.
Goodman gets a bad rep by selling to anyone with a pulse who then hacks the unit in or otherwise does a poor quality installation, either intentionally or not.

I would not suggest buying a system online and having a system installed.
If you buy it yourself it’s best to install it yourself.
Otherwise it’s best to let a contractor supply and install the equipment.
This is due to lack of warranty for customer purchased equipment, as well as the general low quality of techs willing to install customer purchased equipment.
