re: Price differences for new HVAC system

The 2 higher quotes are in line with a single stage 16 Seer quote on a Trane I received 2 years ago. If the low quote is a from small 1 or 2 man firm with minimal overhead I can see why it’s cheaper - and that says nothing about the quality of the install you might expect. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire a small firm with an experienced, highly qualified owner who personally works on the installs.
What is the labor warranty with each quote - 1 year or longer. A longer labor warranty comes at a higher price.
You currently have a 5 ton?

1 year labor, 10 year parts on all. Currently have a 5 ton. And yeah the cheaper price is from a small outfit. Guys credentials is a licensed electrician as well as HVAC, 20 years experience. Nothing about it felt like he was trying to sell me anything, he even mentioned that his quotes usually come in about 30% lower than most others if I was getting other bids, and sure enough his number was a lot lower.

CrawDude, what's your take on yearly maintenance plans? My new unit offers labor warranty as long as I keep a maintenance contract. Don't remember the price, but it was inline with contracts I've read from other companies.
