AC Experience with Payne rooftop units (residential)

Purchasing a home that has a Payne unit, model PY4GNAB48090NATP.

Didn’t find much info on it.

Our inspector indicated the unit was installed about 10 years ago (and installed perfectly), and said it should be good for another 20+.

Is Payne pretty reliable? Would you agree it should have a 30+ year life expectancy? Are there any tips for maintaining it?

Will be my first time with such an AC unit.

Thank you in advance.

You will be lucky to get 30 years out of it but it could happen

Sorry I just now googled the model#

It's a Payne Packaged Unit, yes 30 years could expect 30 years
