BiggerPockets Houston family,

I am in need of a dynamite A/C guy for a houston rental I am considering picking up. The A/C crapped out and they are currently using window units. The home warranty won't repair since they arent replacing parts that require them to refill with R-22 refrigerant. Supposedly the whole house needs be retro fitted to work with the new R-410A refrigerant. Below is a list of what all needs to be done and final cost from A/C company. I am looking for a local guy who can do it much cheaper if possible.

-1-ARUG42C14A Air Handler

-1-GSX13042 Condensing Unit (3.5 ton - 13 seer)

-Disconnect and remove existing air handler in closet

-Install new platform and seal return air chase

-Reinstall existing air handler

-Repair wiring and reconnect ductwork

-Install new refrigerant lines

-Remove existing condensing unit

-Install new condenser listed above

-Reconnect electrical to equipment

-Restart system and check operation

Total - $5,450

Please let me know if you guys think this is reasonable or if anyone has had experience with this. Thanks in advance
