Aspen Aire provides Rheem, Carrier, and Amana air conditioners for our residential customers in Des Moines, Ankeny & central Iowa. We work with these air conditioner brands because of their quality, efficiency and variety of options. If you need a new or replacement air conditioner, we’ll show you which models are the right size for your home and explain the differences between them.
If you’d like to see how different AC units compare, the SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) ratings are a standardized way to compare each model’s energy efficiency. You can find SEER ratings and more details in each furnace’s spec sheet below.
Aspen Aire is proud to be a Rheem Top Pro Partner!
