Neighbor across the street just had the central air/heat replaced. So what you say! Try this on for size: $32000.00. I replaced mine about 3 years ago for about 1/3 the price. Their home is a 4 bedroom with enclosed porch. I peed myself when they told me the cost. It won't be getting cheaper.

Sounds like they had the entire furnace and ducting replaced too. For that much I hope they put in a heat pump with geothermal cooling too.

no duct work. we use "inline" heat strips for heating. not very efficient but our winters are not that cold so no need to "heat" very often. cant comment on the heat pump aspect - I don't know.

I replaced all the duct work in my old single story 3 bedroom house for under $1500!!Now my mini-split in my new home cost me almost $1k to install all by itself and I already owned the inside and outside units!!!
Today at lunch the weather guy talked for almost 5 minutes on the fact that the average daily high temp here is going down 1 degree F as of today!!! Yesterday the average was 90F and today it's 89F, next month it will be near 80F though. And NO hurricanes are forming off the Coast of Africa yet so hopefully that too will continue!!

with respect to hurricanes - ssshhhhhhh! don't jinx us. We still have a long way to go. Officially ends in November, assuming the current conditions don't extend the window.

Oh don't worry the local weather guy in my area night before last said that after the next 5 days changes are coming and we should be back into the storm phase again
Woke up around 3 am this morning to a deluge from a thunderstorm. Because of all the hot weather and dry conditions I have been been leaving the car windows cracked a couple of inches to reduce heat build up.
With all the thunder, lightening, and rain coming down I quickly got up to get the car windows closed. Standing with the garage door open and a real gully washer coming down, I ran to the car and ducked inside. Sitting in the driver's seat, sopping wet, I realized that the windows were all closed... oops. Maybe it was the other car next to the one I was in.
I got out, locked the car door with rain still pouring down, ran around the back of the car only to find the other car's windows all the way up too. I went back in the house and told my wife what I'd done. With rain water dripping down my head and clothes drenched, we had a good laugh.
