Is American Standard a good brand? Yes. American Standard heating and air conditioning belongs to Trane Technologies, the same company as Trane, and its furnaces are covered by the very same warranty document as Trane’s. The top American Standard furnace, the Platinum 95, is rated up to 97.3% AFUE and modulates from 40% to 100%. A furnace and AC we install runs $8,898 to $23,000. From about $148 a month at 0% APR for 60 months, the whole price financed, on approved credit.

American Standard’s lines, in plain words
| Line | What it means |
|---|---|

| Gold | The middle: two-stage furnaces and the Gold 17 multi-speed heat pump. |
| Silver | The entry line: single-stage furnaces and the Silver 16 heat pump. |
For ductless, American Standard partners with Mitsubishi Electric, the same as Trane.
American Standard vs Trane
Same company, same furnace warranty document, different badges and model names. Trane’s dealer program and American Standard’s are separate, so which one you get offered mostly depends on which dealer you called. We’re a Trane Comfort Specialist, so a new system from us is a Trane; an American Standard already in your house gets the same $99 diagnostic and the same repair prices as anything else.
The system we put in first
Built to take a beating. Put in by our crew.
Heat lamps, snow and rain on one outdoor unit: that’s Trane’s own film. We’re a Trane Comfort Specialist, on Trane’s own dealer locator, and when you pick a Trane, our crew puts it in.
Films: Trane’s own.
What matters more than the badge
An American Standard sized off a real load calculation, on ductwork that can carry its air, with the charge set by measurement, will outlast a fancier unit put in badly. Register it within 60 days for the longer parts warranty, change the filter, and have it looked at once a year.
