Today I rec'd the first of 3 quotes that I plan to get to replace my
25 yr old 4T Carrier heat pump and GE air handler.The contractor did a Manual load J and determined I need a 4T unit. (old system is also 4T).
He quoted Carrier Infinity19 HP/Infinity air coil ($10800), Carrier Comfort HP/Infinity air coil ($10,100), and Comfort HP/Comfort air coils ($9500).
His quote assumnes re-use of my old R22 line set. He claims Carrier tells them that's acceptable practice assuming it's properly evacuated. I'm curious if it really is acceptable practice?
I plan to get at least 2 more quotes but is this a basis for rejecting this contractor??
