HVAC Replacement cost

I’d still be calling around if quoted half that.
It’s $5-6k worth of equipment if not changing ducts and not going variable speed. Is 2-3 technicians for 1/2 day worth $15k?

Seems on the high end but they are still expensive asf on the low end

I actually trust this company which is why I’m considering it.

Just got an estimate to replace with a 5 ton Heil HVAC for $20k.

I replaced mine a year ago for 9k. That price seems crazy

Yes we have enough insulation. It’s an older house and the 4 ton just isn’t big enough. It is definitely under powered

Way too high
I had 2 five ton Units replaced last year, one with electric heat, the other they did not have to change the gas furnace but did replace inside and outside units with American standard , no duct work, but did completely re do the secondary drip pan on both
$7600 and $8k

They recommended it for me because I have three zones and need to run a bypass for some of the smaller zones. I can get rid of the bypass and save some money since the aster is the zone that works the hardest in the summer and it’s also the smallest.

My system is 5 zones, with a 4 ton Carrier that handles them nicely. But in a few years it will be time to replace it, and I hear zone A/C's ain't cheap.

I paid $10,500 for a 4-ton American Standard replacement in 2023. BR Area.
