What Changes the Price
- The size of your home and the size of the system it needs (a proper load calculation sets this, not a guess).
- The efficiency level and equipment tier you choose.
- The condition of your ductwork and whether it needs repair or changes.
- How easy it is to get to the equipment (attic, closet or tight spaces).
- What the technician finds once they look: repairs are priced after the diagnosis, before work begins.
Priced After We See It
Some jobs depend on what the technician finds, so we do not publish a number for them. You still get a written price before any work begins.
- Refrigerant leaks
- Compressor or coil problems
- Duct redesign or replacement
- Homes with unusual setups
- New construction
