3 Questions to Ask Your Trane Dealer
So - let me set this up...
For the past 30 minutes, you have been presented all the reasons why a particular Trane air conditioner is the right one for you and your home. The Sales person has laid out a price in front of you and now you need to decide if you will buy or not.
3 Questions to Save Money on a Trane Air Conditioner
When asked in order, these 3 questions can save you a lot of money on your next system!
1 - How Soon Can you Install the System?
By asking your salesperson how soon they can install, you have actually triggered the "I made a sale" gene in the mind of a salesman! This person thinks they just added another person to the Trane family of owners... and thinks they are in control of the rest of this process!
Ask... and WAIT until they answer. In most cases, they will ask for a minute or two, to call in the question to their install manager just to be sure, but rest assured... EVERY HVAC company can install it today or tomorrow if they think it will help close the deal. Calling in is just a ploy to make you think they are getting an exact date / time for you!
2 - Do You Offer Financing, or Take Credit Cards?
So... now that you know they can get it installed tomorrow for you, lead that sales person on a bit more... and ask them how you can pay for it! See where we are going with this? When can you install it and how can I pay for it?!
Your Trane salesman is going to have a hard time hiding their excitement at this point and you may actually hear a little squeal slip out if he's not careful! In reality, he thinks you are his and he's already thinking of the ways he is going to brag this up later to the other salespeople!
Again... Let him talk and WAIT until he is done!
3 - Will You Take off $1000 if I Buy it Right Now?
Ohhh... You just hit them with the Hammer!
Heck, you can substitute the amount of the discount to whatever you want... but here is a good guide for you:
- Price up to $2500, ask for 5-10% off!
- Priced from $2500-$5000, ask for 10-20% off!
- $5000 or more, ask for 20-30% off!
By now, there is no way this salesman is going to let the sale get away from him, and he WILL give you the best possible price you are ever going to get from his company! Period! Whether he gives you $1000 a Trane system or not is purely related to how bad he wants the sale, but rest assured, there is plenty of leeway for travel in the price he gives you first!

My first question would be: how can you look me in the face and tell me all this great stuff about Trane when you know it is a piece of crap that will be constantly breaking down and costing me thousands in repair bills.
Our Trane is less than 5 years old and so far this year we have had the repairmen out four times. We have already spent $500 on repairs and are now facing a $900 bill to replace the coil because it is leaking.
Almost everything that has broken down on our unit is under warranty, but by the time you pay for service charges and labor and new freon, you are still talking about major bucks for every repair.
You would think that if the coil on the ac has a ten year warranty, you could expect it to last that long or somewhere near it. But no, you have to have it replaced and spend almost a thousand bucks to do it. And there is freon to buy at 70 buck a pound and that initial service charge just to have them come out and tell you your piece of crap Tranne has once again crapped out.
Never again a Trane for us and we will crucify you on the web every chance we get.
