Original price for all (7) systems was $87,974.00 -$5,000.00 (New Line sets credit) -$2,200.00 (Roofing allowance) $80,774.00 for ALL Seven systems That is an increase over the original approval for (6) systems of $5,372.00. Hope this helps, let me know how to proceed, I need to secure equipment, and change permit to reflect 7 systems in lieu of 6 but other than that I don't anticpate any issues, we will reconnec to all existing as planned and new equipment should fit back as is. Keep in mind you may be required during inspeciton to install a fall protection gate/ rail where the existign access point is, depends on the inspector.

These higher efficiency condensing furnaces have pretty much become the standard and we would not recommend the outdated 80%technology. However I do not anticipate the energy savings for improving beyond the 14 SEER outdoor units would be worth the significant extra expense. This proposal does offer the significant benefit of replacing the furnaces at this time as well as the outdoor units. The existing units are well beyond their expected life and this would have been our design approach from the beginning if adequate funds for this facility would have been available. Please let me know if any questions or you wish to discuss this further.
