Is $11,400 to install an American Standard 5 ton 17 SEER AC unit a fair price?
Project Details
I just got quoted for an American Standard unit and am looking for insight on the pricing. I'm replacing my current unit, and the ductwork is already installed. I think it's a reasonable deal, but I want to make sure I'm not overpaying. I'm also waiting for the official quote to be sent to me. I was also told an Ameristar unit would be $7,600, but I don't know the exact model details for either option.
