Hello everybody!
So I have spent weeks with HVAC contractors coming out and quoting a mini split system for my home. I use window units to cool in the summer and a 100 year-old oil furnace (exaggerating) to heat. So something better has to be put in place as the oil burner is like burning cash.
I received 3 quotes from $18 600 to $23 000 for 2x3 ton systems as that is cheaper than a 5 ton plus a single unit. However, I was outraged and refuse to pay that much so here is my new plan. I will purchase the system by myself and have a certified HVAC installer hook it up.
I settled for the LG series and was about to find it online for a very decent price but noticed something odd on the homepage of the dealer (good reputation and reviews. don't want to name the site cuz I don't want to seem like I am advertising for them)
Anyways, if you look at the picture you will see that the system is advertised as a 33 000 BTU with a 21 SEER rating. However, the description of this system states that the condenser is a 24 000 BTU and the LG picture wall unit is only 16 SEER. So how does that ad up to 33 000 BTU and 21 SEER?????
PLEASE help me out on this one. I want to go ahead with the purchase of 3 tri zone units and already found a certified HVAC installer for a good price.
I was able to cut the price of EVERYTHING in half and will come out around 9k all together instead of home depot's outrageous 18 000 for an old mitsubishi system. :vs_karate:
Thank you so much! :smile:
