What does HVAC actually cost?

HVAC pricing varies by tonnage, efficiency rating (SEER/AFUE), and ductwork condition. Below is the median quote range from our network — based on recent projects nationwide.

The trick? Single-quote pricing tends to land at the top of these ranges. Comparing 3+ quotes pulls your price toward the bottom — that's where the average savings come from.

Why compare quotes

A single quote is a guess.
Three quotes is leverage.

When HVAC pros know they're competing for your job, they sharpen their pencils. Here's what that looks like in dollars.

The old way

One contractor, one price

Your AC dies on a 95° day. You call the first number on the truck, they show up, and quote retail with a same-day install offer.

  • No price benchmark — you're guessing
  • No leverage to negotiate

  • Pressure to sign before they leave

★★★★★

AC died in July. Big-name chain quoted $13.8k same-day. Three local pros came in $9–11k — went with one at $9,800 who installed a higher-SEER unit.

Dana W. · Cleveland, OH · Full System Replace
Real homeowner story

From $13,800 to $9,800 — and a better system.

Dana's AC quit on a 95° afternoon. The first chain that showed up quoted $13,800 same-day and pushed for a signed contract before they left. She told them she'd sleep on it — and got three more quotes from iWantHVAC overnight.

The winning bid was $9,800, included a higher-SEER 16-rated condenser, and the crew was running it the next afternoon. $4,000 saved — and a system that uses ~22% less power.

★★★★★

"Furnace died on a Saturday. Got 3 quotes by Monday morning — range was $5.4k to $8.2k for the same Trane unit. Saved $2,800 just by not calling the first guy."

★★★★★

"Replaced 22-year-old AC with a high-SEER heat pump. Three quotes, picked the middle one. Power bill dropped $94/month all summer — pays for itself in 6 years."

Raj K.

★★★★★

"Did a 4-zone mini-split for an old farmhouse with no ducts. Compared 4 quotes and the spread was $11k to $17k for nearly identical Mitsubishi units. Insane."

Common questions

Everything you wanted to know.

Yes — completely free, with zero obligation. You answer a few quick questions about your project, and get matched with local HVAC pros who send you quotes.
You get matched with local HVAC pros so you can compare their reviews, ratings, and quotes side by side. Always confirm a pro's license, insurance, and certifications before you hire.
Most homeowners hear from their first contractor within 1–4 hours. For emergency repairs (no AC in summer, no heat in winter), pros can often dispatch same-day.
No — your contact info is only shared with the matched HVAC pros in your area. We're TCPA-compliant.
Repair runs $150–$700. AC-only replace lands $5,000–$10,000. Furnace replace runs $4,000–$8,000. A full matched system is typically $10,000–$18,000. Heat pumps run $8,000–$15,000. Mini-splits range $3,500–$11,000 depending on zones.
As of 2023, the U.S. minimum SEER2 is 13.4 (North) or 14.3 (South). Most quality systems today are 15–18 SEER2; high-efficiency variable-speed units run 18–22+ SEER2. Many systems qualify for the federal Energy Efficient Home Improvement tax credit — up to $2,000 for heat pumps.
A quality HVAC install should come with a manufacturer's 10-year parts warranty on compressor and major components, plus a separate labor warranty from the contractor (1–10 years). Factory-authorized dealers often offer extended 12–15 year parts-and-labor coverage.
