Add on new AC unit / heat pump and coil and you may be looking at another $4k - $8k installed.

Normally the coil is the deal breaker when it comes time to buy a new one.

The thieves will reach between the bars and cut through the fins of the condensing unit to get to the copper in the coil.

After checking out the unit, he determined that the coils and refrigerant was intact (amazing) but the fan was toast.Feast thine eyes:And the repair:Yes, that's right - you see a box fan in that picture, taped in place with metal duct tape.

It sound like it is cooling, just not very well,   Could be a dirty evaporator coil, a dirty condenser coil, dirty filters, or it might need Freon.  

Got quoted $3,950 for a 95% high efficiency 60,000BTU furnace/ 2.5 ton AC unit with condenser/coil everything installed.Good deal?

and then a nailer or hammer and pin nails to reattach shoe molding.

The three bids that I've received for installing high-efficiency Rheem furnaces in the units have hovered around $8500 all in (run electrical, gas, furnace purchase, ducting, AC coil for later use, AC line to roof, and then soffit installation to hide the ducting).

We been carrying CHW for last few years and they still denied the claim on AC coil saying that they don't cover rusted parts per their contract.  

I have a coil top stove in one nice rental and we have only replaced the reflectors below each burner so I may return to buying coil tops.
