Is $5,500 to install a 3 ton Goodman 13 SEER HVAC unit a fair price?
Project Details
I am seeking advice and opinions on two HVAC quotes I received. I'm concerned about the quality and reliability of the Lennox unit, as I've read about issues with Lennox quality control and the R-454b refrigerant. I'm also unsure how to verify the legitimacy and skill of the mom and pop installers.
