There is a loaded question if I ever heard one. (Hi Cameron)
I knew my HVAC system, at least what was under the house (furnace, and ducts) were old, quite old, so I decided to break down and get the whole thing replaced before cold weather got here.
Guy came last Fri, gave me a quote for (wait....tick tock)$7.900.00 USD to replace it all, AND they would be putting in returns that would make the airflow better, including one outside my bedroom door.
More guys came yesterday and did the biggest part under the house, but said that due to the construction and the cramped space, they would not be able to put in a return back here.
Then after it was all installed, the main guy came in (12 hrs after arriving) to say that the "TXP" was defective and would have to be replaced today.
Then today, another guy shows up, does his thang, says it isn't the TXP, and now we are waiting for HIS supervisor and a NEW COIL to arrive.
And through all this, I will still not have an adequately heated/cooled bedroom.
So I guess I would say it isn't coming along too well right now @scubahead
Bit like my boat. I feel ya pain bro. BUT we will both end up better off down the line. My new engine install revealed a few other things that needed sorting. So happy I rectified a few other issues at the same time.
Your boat engine is more to you than my AC is to me, yours is your home AND your transportation.
This saga is almost done now, I'll be making a post about this shortly, and since they will have to come back AGAIN to run a larger duct back here, I may have to make an edit, or a follow on post about it.
I'm happy for you @scubahead and @millycf1976
Cheers Jerry, hope you are doing well! How’s the house coming along?
