Santa Fe Advance
By Bob on 09/26/2021
My personal experience...Purchased the Advance in 2014. Within a year it stopped working. Within the Warranty so crated it and shipped it back. About 5 weeks later it was returned. Turned it on in the Garage prior to hauling it into the crawlspace...nothing. Took it into a bathroom and cranked the shower up. Let it operate for an hr per advice of the Company Rep...nothing. Crated it again and returned it. Another bunch of weeks, finally arrived. This time the garage test worked. Into the Crawlspace and performed well for two years then nothing. Issue I see it they mostly use Copper tubing. Hand brazed. Most major HVAC suppliers have all gone to Aluminum tubing/evaporators and their useful life has doubled. Copper and brazing areas seem to leak over time??? Also, on Amazon the comments for several of these units is N/A or locked??? This was a very expensive unit, and no condensate pump. Again, my experience only.
