My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

comparing heat pump/air handler proposals

10 years ago

We have a 2900 sq ft home and need to replace our heat pump system. The recommendation is a TRANE outdoor unit (4TWX8048A1) and a TRANE indoor unit

(TAMAOCH8H4). Seer 17, EER 12.5 Btuh cooling 47,000 Btuh Heating 46,000

CFM 1,400. Cost $10,675. Do we need a Trane Clean Effects air cleaner $1,200 or an Aprilaire#400 humidifier mounted on the air handler? Thanks for any help you can give.

Jane
