New Hvac instalation

[DEANDRE SEARCY]

Hi so my duplex that I just bought needs an upgrade with the HVAC unit, I am replacing the window unit and electrical radiant heat with a central ac, i got a bid for 7.5k wanted to know if that is a good bid for new HVAC unit, duct work, heat pump and installation? Also this is located in Nashville TN and if anyone has any respectable contractors in the area let me know so I can contact them :)

2 bedroom 1 bathroom 780sq

@DEANDRE SEARCY, have you considered using a ductless system? The installation costs are less because they don't require ductwork. They just have lines that run from the compressor to each air handler that hang on a wall.

I did a ductless system on a small 2 bedroom house last year for under $5k. I had an air handler in each bedroom and 1 for the rest of the house.

I bought the system directly through https://www.highseer.com/ and then had a local HVAC guy install it.
