Trane HVAC System Cost by Model with Installation

At Watkins Heating & Cooling, we chose Trane as our primary HVAC brand in 1995 because of their commitment to quality and reliability. We knew our reputation would be linked to the quality of the equipment we installed. Over the years, we have watched Trane continue to lead the industry both in reliability and advanced technology, offering superior quality and energy-efficient solutions for residential and commercial clients.

Many homeowners don't realize that, while Trane is the premium brand, they also take pride in making "a Trane for every home." Over the past decade, Trane has refined their entry-level HVAC units, achieving very competitive pricing while keeping the core components that make Trane so reliable. Their range of models suits different budgets without compromising on quality, reflecting Trane's commitment to value. So, whether you want the best energy efficiency for your forever home or a reliable air conditioner for a rental property, Trane builds an A/C unit for every home.

Looking for the average cost to install an HVAC system? HVAC pricing info is hard to find on the internet for several reasons. The first is that heating companies don't want to reveal their price without having someone in-person to pressure you into a close. Secondly, the cost of an installed HVAC system varies widely with many factors such as sizing, duct systems, other materials, and the amount of labor required. Unlike a refrigerator, a new furnace and A/C cannot be simply unboxed and plugged in the wall.

So, while every home is different, we want to provide as much info as we can with the following HVAC pricing guide. Below you'll find our most common Trane furnaces, air conditioners, and heat pumps complete with specifications and energy efficiency ratings. We have included a price range to help you budget and begin to decide which system is right for your home. For a complete discussion of the various pricing factors check out our pages about Furnace, Heat Pump, and Air Conditioner pricing.

Pricing
Price ranges reflect that each unit comes in different sizes, with smaller units costing less. Our experts perform a heat-load calculation to ensure the perfect fit for your home.
Staging
Staging is like ceiling fan speeds. More stages means a more accurate match to current conditions and better humidity and temperature control.
Efficiency Rating
Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio, SEER2, HSPF2, and AFUE are efficiency standards. Higher the numbers equal better energy efficiency and lower utility bills.
Sound Rating
Lower decibel sound ratings mean quieter operation. Trane uses compressor sound insulation and swept fan blades to achieve quieter sound rating on their high-end units.

Trane Air Conditioner Prices:

Trane is known for making some of the most rugged air conditioners in the industry. Their success is due in part to the rigorous testing in Trane’s Systems Extreme Environmental Test (SEET) lab. This lab simulates the most extreme heat and cold, driving rain, and even salt spray to ensure their A/Cs will perform even in severe weather. This lab helped them perfect exclusive technologies such as the Climatuff compressor and the WeatherGuard top.

Below, we've listed a broad range of Trane air conditioners with pricing to help you find the best fit for your home and budget. This guide will help you to understand the features and the pros and cons of each AC. For each condensing unit, we include sizing information and efficiency ratings as well as downloadable specifications and manuals.

All the Trane split-system air conditioners listed include exclusive features such the Spine-Fin condenser coil, composite base pan, and full-wrap coil protection. The flagship model, the XV20i, is the same unit we use in our offices, featuring a fully variable speed compressor and a liquid-cooled inverter drive. Trane's two-stage models, the XL17i and XR16, offer great humidity control and comfort at a much lower price point. Lastly, the XR15 and XR14 provide Trane reliability in a basic single-speed package, perfect for anyone looking for Trane reliability on a tight budget.
