how to change may rheem air condition filter?

How long can I expect my Rheem heat pump/air conditioner to last for my home? This is a two-part question: 1) I don't know the first thing about air conditioning units, but a friend of mine told me residential air conditioners only last a maximum of 10-12 years. This seems like a pretty short lifespan for such an expensive piece of equipment. Is he correct? 2) Also, is the heat pump a separate unit from the air conditioner?

air conditioner pouring out water? I have a rheem air conditioning unit. Tonight I noticed that it was not warming the house. I turned it off for about an hour and then turned it back on. After I turned it on it did start warming the house, but I heard running water. When I looked I found that the handler was pouring out water from the bottom of the unit. I could not locate from exactly where because of the screen (not the filter). I turned it back off and the water subsided. I checked the drain but it was not clogged. Any suggestions why this would happen? Thanks

how to install an exterior air unit that hooks on to an furnace? we have a Rheem furnace and would like to add air conditioning

Is this a fair quote for FL central air conditioning? My handler and condensor are both shot. The company (reputable and rated favorably with the BBB) provided me with two quotes. Both are for a 15 SEER, 2.5 heat pump system. They would reconnect duct work, weatherproof the electrical disconnect, provide a new thermastat, etc. The quote is for both the handler and condensor as well as installation. The first system is a Lennox Elite and the second is a Rheem Classic. They price at $6,500 and $5,700, respectively. Is this fair? Which is a better system as far as longetivity, "weatherproofing," efficiency, etc.? I have to make a decision pretty quickly.

Is it ok to run our A/C in the winter? Our house gets very warm and moist in the winter from all the cooking we do. I know that the air conditioning takes the moisture out of the air. This is a Rheem 10 SEER air conditioner paired up with a Rheem Criterion 2 furnace. So is it ok if i turn it on for a little bit to cool the place down a little bit and take some moisture out? We have a dehumidifier but it wont keep up with the moisture and makes the place warmer.
