HVAC referral for the Tomball, TX area (kudos to NDSC!!)

I recently had to have my HVAC replaced because the old one was 10 years old, causing high energy bills and kept breaking down.

I called out everyone from Trane to Carrier to American Standard to Goodman. The quotes I got were for 13 seer to 15 seer units.

I got quotes that ranged from $3300 to $16,500.

Yeah, that is a big difference.

I hope you don't have your system go out in these tough economic times but if you do I highly recommend you give Neal a call at 936-372-3416.

He was prompt, polite and best of all he got us a new system for under $4000.

The system we got was a Ruud, 5 ton, 13 seer. Yes I know that isn't the highest seer rating but when you go 3 days with no HVAC, are on a budget and are paying cash....the 13 seer was much better than the 10 year old unit we had and should be more energy efficient and best of all you don't have to sweat to death!!

So if you find yourself in my shoes....give Neal a call.

Cheri - Wow! What a wide range of quotes! I'm glad you didn't have to pay $16,500. I hope this unit lasts longer than 10 years... :)

13 SER isn't bad. There are lots of other things you can do to keep the electric bill down.

Thanks Trey. 13 seer is better than the old unit I had. I have done just about everything possible to keep the bills down. I have been using cf bulbs for a couple of years now. We have solar screens on almost every window. I constantly turn off lights. I try to use the appliances outside of peak hours of 3-7pm. I recently signed a contract with my power provider to get a lower rate per kwh when I was on month to month. We caulk, putty, fill, trim, grow, recycle, etc. My a/c stays at about 77-78 all summer.

We are now looking into better insulation in our attic. I think that is our biggest problem....leaks.
