installing central AC -- cost

[Edwin Pawlowski]

I'm in a similar climate to you. In a new home I'd probably put in central. In an existing home with no ducts (like mine) I'd not bother with the expense. I have a couple of window shakers for the few days we need AC. So far this year the bedroom has been on maybe five nights, the rest of the house not at all. Middle of July and I closed some windows tonight as it is too cool! Ed [e-mail]

Whatever you do. don't buy from Sears, they have a few contractors and in the end you'll regret it as I did.

Locally, HVAC contractors will happily estimate systems for homes you don't yet own. Have you called any?
