WHY TRANE & RUNTRU?

In Arizona's extreme climate, your HVAC system works harder than almost anywhere else in the country. Both brands are built for it.

🌡️

Built for Extreme Heat

Trane's Climatuff™ compressor and RunTru's all-aluminum coils are engineered to handle 110°+ Arizona summers. Both brands are tested and proven in the Southwest's harshest climates.

🔩

Trane Engineering Standards

RunTru is engineered to the same quality standards as Trane — just without the premium features. Both brands share Spine Fin™ coil technology and durable component design.

📜

10-Year Parts Warranty

Both Trane and RunTru systems include a 10-year registered parts warranty. The XV Series adds a 12-year compressor warranty. Bradford backs every install with our own labor guarantee.

💡

Energy Savings

High-efficiency Trane systems (15+ SEER2) qualify for APS and SRP utility rebates. The XV Series at 22 SEER2 can cut your cooling bill by 25–30% vs. an older 10 SEER system.

💚

Every Budget Covered

RunTru starts around $4,500 installed — our most affordable option. Trane's XR, XL, and XV series scale up to meet any comfort and efficiency goal. Bradford has a system for every home.

📱

Smart Home Ready

Trane's XV Series includes ComfortLink™ II with built-in Wi-Fi. RunTru and XR/XL systems are compatible with most smart thermostats as an add-on — including Nest and ecobee.

Arizona Homeowner's Guide

HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT SYSTEM

Six questions to ask before you buy — answered for West Valley Arizona homeowners.

💰
STEP 01

What's Your Budget?

RunTru starts around $4,500 installed — the most affordable Trane-backed system we offer, financed at 6.99% for 120 months (~$75/mo). XR runs $6,500–$9,000, XL $8,500–$12,000, and XV $11,000–$15,000. Trane XR/XL/XV Series qualify for 0% interest for 60 months (~$165/mo for XV). Bradford offers GreenSky financing on all systems.

🏠
STEP 02

Is It a Rental or Primary Home?

For rental properties and investment homes, RunTru delivers Trane-backed reliability at the lowest cost. For your primary residence where comfort matters daily, the XL or XV Series is a better long-term investment.

📅
STEP 03

How Long Will You Stay?

If you plan to stay 7+ years, the XV Series pays for itself through energy savings and utility rebates. For shorter stays, RunTru or XR delivers excellent value without overpaying for features you may not fully use.

🌡️
STEP 04

How Hot Does Your Home Get?

In Arizona's 110°+ summers, a variable-speed XV system maintains temperature within 0.5°F of your setpoint. Single-stage RunTru and XR units cycle on/off, creating temperature swings of 3–4°F.

💧
STEP 05

Do You Have Humidity Issues?

Arizona's monsoon season (July–September) brings surprise humidity spikes. The XV's advanced dehumidification mode removes moisture independently of cooling. RunTru and XR offer basic moisture removal only.

🔇
STEP 06

Is Noise a Concern?

The XV runs at 54–65 dBA — quieter than a normal conversation. RunTru and XR run at 70–74 dBA, similar to a vacuum cleaner. If your unit is near a bedroom or patio, XV is the clear winner.
