HVAC cost
I know prices have shot up since covid but still I got sticker shock on a quote to swap out AC and furnace. $16,500.

Carrier 3 ton 16 SEER AC, and 96% two stage 100k furnace plus thermostat and duct cleaning. 10 year parts 1 year labor, 20 years on heat exchangers.

High cost of living city. Is this the new normal? I know I need more quotes but this outfit has the best reputation for install and service.

Both existing 17 years old. AC is fine but furnace exchangers are cracked and prices will keep rising so doing both. Really appreciate the advice!

Wow. That seems like that's pretty high, but also I live in a shithole city. Plus I "know s guy".

Going to have my central and furnace swapped out. Mine are 25+ years old.

That sounds steep to me, we replaced just the AC seven years ago. The Trane furnace is 25 years old but why replace it when it still runs like a champ.

See about just replacing the furnace only so you won’t take such a big hit in the pocket book.

Did you have other places give you a bid on their products?

A lot steep if you live in a rural or low cost area
A little steep if you live in mid America
Cheap if you live in a major city like New York or California

That's stupid high.

Check out the Pioneer heat pumps instead.

Straight drop in for your existing HVAC, and will provide heat down to -15F, and very efficient.

The above is more than you need, but they make 3 ton units.

Also, heat exchangers are cheap and easy to replace yourself.

We had ours replaced in Jan of 2023 and got quotes from several outfits. Our highest was around that $16k mark, but we ended up getting it done for $9k...pretty much the same specs as you mentioned.

Yes that is pretty damn high. The 3 ton is the most common size. So it should be cheaper than that. I bet you can get it done for $9500 to $12K with the same equipment or Trane equipment.

On this same topic, I want to get a mini split in my garage. Nearly 5k installed are the quotes. That is like 3k labor for what amounts to a half day work.
