Also, would anyone recommend switching just the outside unit and leaving the old inside one or should I switch both.

depends...have you had any other problems with the unit?...how often are you having to put refrigerant in the current one?....

Around 6 might not be a trane though. Nothing wrong w a lennox

I'll be changing my equally as old unit for around $3500. Much smaller place/unit though...going with a 2.5 ton 14 seer Rheem.

I checked around online last week for a unit for my upstairs. I ordered from https://www.budgetairsupply.com/

Luckily for me, my brother-in-law is an AC guy, and did the install for me for free, but the price I got on the system was great. Granted, it's not a MAJOR name brand that I bought, but the warranty was 10 years.

I got a Goodman 2.5 ton 13 SEER heat pump, matching air handler, 8kw heater, free programmable thermostat, free shipping (came from central Florida in two days via freight line)for $1400

General rule is that if your air handler if over 7 years old, you may want to change it along with the condenser.

Replaced our 2 ton unit with a Trane 3 ton unit and had duct work done last summer for $7200.
Previous utility bills averaged around 375-400 per month but with new unit it dropped almost $100 on avg per mo.
