Highest this year was 150. On 3300 sf. Upstairs gets used once a month or less. Theres a door that closes the stairs off from the main house. Master is turned up to 76 unless I'm sleeping. Main house stays on 74. All lighting is led.

That's not bad at all. I think mind is made up to do 2 separate initially. One master and kids rooms and the other for main areas and guest room. Install program thermostat to adjust setting in main areas at night to reduce energy draw and vice versa in bedrooms during day. Then will add on a mini split to bonus room in year or so, but do all prep work now. I'll end up with 3000 sf when bonus is finished and have 3 systems equaling 6 tons. Also going all led bulbs.

You want an inverter compressor that runs at varying speeds using a variable speed drive. I believe these units are state of the art. I have dual compressors with the smaller one staying running after the larger compressor turns off, and this helps lower humidity. Inverter compressors are also super quiet.
