I’m seeking to reduce kWh daily use (and PW drain during outage) by cooling our bedroom w/ 12k BTU, 22 SEER, 230 volt, single head mini split.
Two bids/quotes:
Both about $9k.
Product pricing for outdoor compressor, indoor head unit, and line set is about $1,500 (Mitsubishi) and under $1,000 (Bosch from Lowe’s) if line set not included.
Install shouldn’t take more than 8 hours.
Is $9k bid/quote ridiculous or is that possibly fair?
$7k install cost?
Southeast Pennsylvania (Philly suburbs)
I read @CrazyRabbit did DIY in garage just to cool PWs! That is
I don’t have the know how.
Still cool and, installed Mr. Cool mini split to boot.
How cool is that?!
Second question:
Lowe’s offers about 5 different prices for what appears to be the identical Bosch 12k BTU single head pro package with 20+ SEER, ranging in price from $850 to $1,500. Only difference I can identify in the cheapest package is deletion of the line set and SEER reduction < 1.
Am I missing something or is the $850 package a steal?
