Regardless of the HVAC prices you find, you’ll want to spend what it takes to get a local qualified contractor. The maximum efficiency of your furnace or air conditioner will be determined by the knowledge and skill of the HVAC installation expert that you hire. A good contractor will be able to help you even before you make your purchase by doing Manual J and Manual D calculations on your home. You don’t want to purchase a furnace that is too large or too small. An incorrectly sized furnace will wear out prematurely and may not be able to keep your home at a consistently comfortable temperature. Same goes for getting the correct size of air conditioner.  

When looking for a local contractor, do some calling around before you buy your equipment. Some dealers won’t install customer-supplied HVAC equipment. Other techs will give you a break on the installation work and will match prices if you buy through them. By calling around first you can ensure that you get the best deal.
