Is $6,200 to install a 3-ton Lennox ML14KC1-036 AC unit a fair price?
Project Details
I am installing a 3-ton unit and have received these two quotes. I'm looking for advice on which option to choose, specifically regarding which unit will last the longest and cost the least over a 15-year period, given that both installers offer similar parts and labor warranties.
