Load calc is part of the paid job.... and FWIW, $5400 for a 2 1/2 ton heat
pump and air handler is a steal. I just did a change-out for the going
rate
of $7,000...had it been with a gas furnace, it would have been $8,000.
BTW, did anybody give you a copy of the ARI certificate for the specific
equipment??
