Replacing central heat and air... need advice

| Have been given a price of $6000 to replace my old 3 ton unit with new
Lennox 13 seer system. Is that price in the ballpark or am I being
taken to the cleaners?
Thanks,

For a 13-SEER, WOW! I would get bids on a lot of makes and then make
certain the installer is first rate!
How is a matched system going to pay for itself in savings at that price?

Sounds high for most of the U.S. Get another couple of bids.

I would suggest additional bids and remember that it is the installer,
not the brand of the unit that is most important.

| Good advice. Made a couple of phone calls and found a 12 SEER Bryant in
the $3500 range, reputable dealer too. Doubt 1 SEER will make too much
difference. If I could have gotten a twin to what I have, (cools and
heats and has for 23 years), I would have bought it at 6 SEER.
Thanks,
GeoW

WAY high.
Even for Lemmox stuff.
Just put in a new Trane unit, 14SEER heat pump, complete split for about
half that.
