RunTru is Trane's budget-friendly brand — engineered to the same quality standards, backed by a 10-year parts warranty, and available at a significantly lower price point.

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) can cut your cooling bill by 25–30% vs. an older 10 SEER system. The XV Series at 22 SEER2 pays for itself through energy savings over time.
Every Budget Covered
RunTru starts around $8,000 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.

TRANE vs. RUNTRU
Same Trane engineering DNA — different price points. Here's exactly what you get and give up with each brand.
RunTru by Trane
Trane's budget-friendly brand
RunTru is engineered and backed by Trane — the same factory standards, the same AHRI-certified matched systems, and the same 10-year parts warranty. It strips out the premium features (variable speed, advanced dehumidification, built-in Wi-Fi) to deliver reliable cooling at the lowest possible price.
Rental properties, investment homes, budget-conscious buyers, and homeowners who want Trane reliability without premium pricing.
Trane (XR / XL / XV)
The flagship brand — built for performance
Trane's flagship XR, XL, and XV series offer progressively more advanced technology — from single-stage reliability (XR) to two-stage comfort (XL) to variable-speed precision (XV). The XV Series is specifically engineered for extreme climates like Arizona's, with advanced dehumidification, built-in Wi-Fi, and up to 22 SEER2 efficiency.
Primary residences, families who want maximum comfort, homeowners staying 5+ years, and anyone who wants to minimize monthly utility bills.

Six questions to ask before you buy — answered for West Valley Arizona homeowners.
What's Your Budget?
RunTru starts around $8,000 installed — the most affordable Trane-backed system we offer, financed at 6.99% for 120 months (~$110/mo). XR runs $10,000–$12,500, XL $12,000–$15,500, and XV $14,500–$18,500. Trane XR/XL/XV Series qualify for 0% interest for 60 months (~$245/mo for XV). Bradford offers GreenSky financing on all systems.
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.
How Long Will You Stay?
If you plan to stay 7+ years, the XV Series pays for itself through energy savings alone. The 0% financing over 60 months also makes the premium cost more manageable. For shorter stays, RunTru or XR delivers excellent value without overpaying for features you may not fully use.
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.
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.
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.
