Answer 1

Hello Ragtop:

More information is needed to provide a quote.

In what part of the world do you live?

Do you have adequate power available to run the outdoor unit? Will you need to hire an electrician to run the power to the outdoor unit?

How far from the indoor unit will the outdoor unit be located?

Will the lineset have to be run through any concrete walls?

Without knowing where you live, the layout of your home, what model, make and features of the heat pump you want, the closest quote I could give would be somewhere between U$2500 and U$10,000.

To get a better quote, call three HVAC companies in your area and ask for a quote.

If you have natural gas close by, go with a gas furnace and A/C.

Consider an Oil burning furnace; new ones are highly efficient, cleaner burning, and can burn bio-diesel fuel. Cost of burning fuel oil is considerably lower than electricity.
