Hi Lawrence,

I too like the Lifebreath, as with Ward, but I like the aluminium core  
for the air quality. No blowing air across plastic cores, but metal. I  
have had sensitive clients react to the plastic bits. You will pay a  
bit more for the metal over plastic, but a better quality unit in my  
opinion.

Regardless of what you get, make sure it's balanced!!!!!  HVAC  
contractor must prove it's balanced before they get paid, in my  
opinion. I see it too often.
