I received a proposal for a new furnace and heat pump for $9200.00 is this a fair deal?
The furnace is a trane xv 95 80000BTU, heat pump is 3 ton w/coil xl16i and a honeywell IAO stat. It seems high to me.

- Get two more estimates from other suppliers. Check with friends and neighbors for recommendations on who they use.
- I'd get a few more estimates, seems high to me as well!
- Where do you live?
- Sounds high to me, call a second person for a proposal. Carrier is a good model. Check your phone book for an authorized Carrier dealer.
- You are looking at top of the line equipment here. The furnace has a variable speed blower (necessary to achieve the 16 SEER for the heat pump) the heat pump is 16 SEER, way above the minimum the law requires. The IAQ thermostat is state of the art also, and high dollar. I'll assume they are changing the copper lines also, copper is high dollar also. (you need new copper lined going from R22 to R410a) The R410A equipment is more expensive than the R22 equipment. The furnace is a 2 stage unit with dual fire levels. I have one, you'll love it. Make sure they wire the furnace to operate the 2 stage by the thermostat, not the timer. So, top quality very high efficiency, state of the art equipment and controls. Add in labor and a 10 year parts and labor warranty (DO NOT LET THIS SLIP BY YOU) and this is a very fair price. There is cheaper stuff out there, but you get what you pay for!
