We had a 2.5 ton 80% unit installed last month for less than $10K, with a lifetime warranty on the heat exchanger and compressor. Included the humidifier.

Let us not forget you are paying for their expertise as well as all the required things to have, run, operate, and make a profit in a business. Have you noticed how much everything has gone up in price that it takes to operate a business? If you are buying a good name-brand mini-split and it is more than 12,000 btu I bet your guess on price of equipment is off by at least $1k.

Wow thanks so much fellows! These numbers give me a good idea about where to draw the line. I'm getting another quote this afternoon. This feels too much like car shopping but worse because it's harder to get benchmarks.

Seems maybe a little higher than what we paid, but not much. We did a Bryant 2.5-ton, 13 SEER AC plus an 80% efficient, two-stage furnace with a variable variable speed ECM motor and a bypass humidifier for about $11k. This was in 2022 in north Denver.

Is it one zone (1 unit) or two zone (2 units)? It's a one zone that is definitely on the high side. It it's two zone it is on the very low side.

By the way, right now is a great time to make this type of purchase. A lot of companies have people sitting around and they will make deals to get jobs.

I think you did hit the nail on the head. They don’t really want to do them because they make more doing something else.

Ok north Denver should be a good comp for cost of living and weather. I'll ask them what the less efficient furnace would be. Bryant and Carrier are same equipment.

Sounds high to me.
In '22: 2 Lennox ML180 Furnaces, 2 CX-35 Lennox Coils, 1 Lennox ML14XC1-024 Air Conditioner, 1 Lennox ML14XC1-030 Air Conditioner, 2 Thermostats, installation, and 1 year service. It came in right at $15,5. We looked at Carrier first, but it was too high...Lennox has been just fine. |
