Yeah, but unless you can install it yourself you’re gonna have a shitty experience. 5/6 companies I called up wouldn’t even touch my self bought equipment, and the one that did charged me out the ass for it. Basically, something like 10k-15k in labor costs. It’s bullshit. And for anything warranty related you need the license number of the installation contractor before you can even file anything.
Installing it didn’t seem too bad… You can get ones with pre-pressurized lines and you just cut a hole through the wall and put it on a cement pad. Saying that, I might be a bit more comfortable with hands-on things than the average person
Heat pumps installations are a racket out in the US right now, it’s artificial expense to pad out pockets, there is no practical reason it need be that expensive.
Depends on the system, the living space, and the existing HVAC. The box itself can be well under $2k USD, but things like upgrading your ducting can add a lot to the bill if you have a central air system.
I had a split ac unit installed about 5 years ago and it cost me like 1300€. What are they charging for it where you live then?
$16,000-20,000 usd for a 2-3 head mini split heat pump
Where? If you look online (in the US at least) they are about $2000
