Wait for the tax credits. And check the recall lists.

i certainly can help, we just bought one. we bought a York; it was the only brand we could find with a lifetime warranty on the compressor. the compressor is the single most expensive component of the entire system. most brands now only offer 5-7 year warranties.
also, you'll hear mention of SEER ratings. this stands for seasonal energy efficiency rating. you want the highest seer rating you can afford. we got the highest rated unit available. it cost us on the purchase end, but we'll recoup the costs due to lower electric bills, etc. don't wait to buy, get as soon as you can because summer is right around the corner. luckily, ours went in march. York is now owned by Johnson controls, probably the biggest control company in the country. get several bids. make sure you get a new thermostat-one which is programmable is my suggestion.

Here in WI I got a $250 rebate from the State and $250 from Carrier (Infinty 96)for buying a high efficiency/multi speed unit. This was last 2 winters ago so the imcentives have probably gone up. I kept fairly good records and have recouped a couple hundo in savings. 10-15 years and it will pay for itself. Air conditioner is still "hanging in there" knock on wood
