AC price check – 15 SEER 4 ton American Standard, $14k
System is 18 years old, barely hanging on but hasn’t completely crashed. Energy bills were outrageous over the summer (even considering the grid issues). We could wait, but my concern is the cost continuing to go up (realize there’s a sales tactic aspect to this but with how prices have increased and DOE regs have changed, seems to be some truth to it) Have had 2 different companies out – the lowest was quoted just under $14k for the work summarized below. Is this reasonable?
