Is $31,000 to replace old oil furnace and AC with Lennox heat pump system a fair price?
Project Details
I'm replacing an old oil furnace and 20 yr old Coleman AC because no one services the home heating oil system anymore. My home is 4000 sq ft and two stories. I received two quotes and they are very different. I'm trying to understand the importance of multi-stage/variable speed systems for efficiency, the long-term serviceability of R410a units given the transition to 454b, and how to reconcile the significant cost difference between the two quotes.
