FAQ
Ducane Air Conditioning - Frequently Asked Questions
Oldach is the premier authorized distributor for Ducane Air Conditioning in Florida. With multiple locations—including Orlando, Tampa, and Kissimmee—Oldach serves as the vital link between the manufacturer and your local HVAC professionals. They ensure that genuine Ducane parts and units are readily available, providing logistics, training, and technical support to the technicians who service your home.
To ensure your system is installed according to factory standards, we recommend using our Dealer Locator on the website. Because Oldach distributes throughout the state, they maintain a network of authorized, factory-trained dealers. Choosing an authorized dealer ensures your installation is eligible for the full 10-year warranty.
For residential applications, Ducane offers a 10-year limited warranty on parts and a Lifetime limited warranty on the heat exchanger (for specific models).
Note: To secure this 10-year coverage, the unit must be registered online within 60 days of installation. If not registered within this window, the warranty defaults to a 5-year period.
To complete your registration, you will need:
- The serial number and model number (found on the unit’s nameplate).
- The installation date.
- The contact information of the HVAC contractor who performed the installation.
SEER2 (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio 2) is the updated national standard for measuring the efficiency of air conditioners and heat pumps. It reflects more realistic real-world conditions. A higher SEER2 rating means the unit uses less electricity to cool your home, leading to lower monthly utility bills and a smaller environmental footprint.
Yes. While Ducane is known for reliable single-stage units, we also offer the LYNX® 18 Inverter Heat Pump. This system uses QuickLink™ Inverter Technology to adapt its speed to your home’s needs, providing ultra-quiet operation (down to 61 dBA) and ratings up to 18 SEER (17.1 SEER2).
Florida’s salt air and humidity can be brutal on HVAC systems. Omniguard® is a proprietary coil technology featured in Ducane units that protects against corrosive elements. It extends the life of your air conditioner by preventing leaks and maintaining efficiency in harsh environments.
No. For safety, environmental compliance (handling of refrigerants), and to maintain your warranty, Ducane equipment must be installed by a licensed HVAC professional. Improper installation can lead to system failure, higher energy costs, and may void your warranty.
Consider a new Ducane system if:
- Your current unit is over 10–12 years old.
- Repair costs exceed 50% of the value of a new system.
- Your energy bills are rising despite regular maintenance.
- Your current system uses R-22 refrigerant, which is being phased out and is increasingly expensive to service.
Many Ducane systems are ENERGY STAR® certified, making them eligible for federal tax credits and local utility rebates in Florida. Additionally, many authorized Ducane dealers offer flexible financing plans to help make your investment more manageable.
Technicians can partner with Oldach for comprehensive technical support. Oldach provides hands-on training, parts catalogs, and “Dealers Only” resources to ensure you have everything needed to install and service Ducane systems efficiently.
