Is $24,500 to install a Mitsubishi HyperHeat mini-split system a fair price?

Project Details

I am in Wakefield, MA, and I am replacing a failed mini-split system. I have narrowed it down to two installers I trust, and both quotes came back at $23.5k but with different equipment. My considerations are that Mitsubishi is the 'gold standard,' quieter, and maybe a bit more reliable long-term. Daikin gives me a bigger main condenser, a much better labor warranty, and ends up being $1k cheaper in total since no WiFi adapters are needed. Cold weather performance between these two setups seems very similar for my house. Both installers seem great, and I am looking for advice on which to pick.

Quote Details

This option includes the installation of a Mitsubishi HyperHeat (454B series) mini-split system. - Outdoor Unit 1: MXZ-3D30 - Indoor Heads for Unit 1: 18k BTU head, 15k BTU head - Outdoor Unit 2: MXZ-3D24 - Indoor Heads for Unit 2: 6k BTU head, 6k BTU head, 6k BTU head - WiFi Modules: $1,000 additional cost - Labor Warranty: 3 years - Parts Warranty: 7 years - Pros: Quieter indoor heads, more techs familiar with Mitsubishi, better inverter modulation, excellent cold-weather performance, great track record.
