As someone who lives in a border county (San Bernardino does border Nevada even if I live closer to Colton than Primm) aren’t you guys on like the edge of having your balls frozen off? Nevada is mostly mountains and highland desert meaning hot as ass summers and cold as shit winters.
Then I guess I’m never replacing mine. It’s not like HVAC technology has advanced much in the past 100 years, beyond the switch to R-134A from Freon. Most tech advancements are made on the thermostat-end. The system itself is ridiculously simple; usually just 3-4 wires (A/C on/off, Heat on/off, fan on/off, and sometimes a separate power wire).
Starting at 8 grand?? Seems pricey and I live in a place with expensive labour
It says equipment starts at $8k. No mention of labor.
Which is even worse, as I’d expect it to be half that installed
Summer is ending up here in the Northern hemisphere, so I’m going with this being in New Zealand, which makes it about $4600 US.
An ad in NZ would be in ºC that “75” looks suspiciously ºF.
We’d also more likely call it a “heat pump” rather than “A/C”.
Though $8000 does sound about right for South Pacific Pesos.
Also, OP said in another comment that it’s US.
It could have easily been stock art
Nope, Nevada. One of the other mildly infuriating things about this flier.

Still crazy. Airconditioning is dirt cheap these days - a small bedroom aircon is like 300-400 usd these days.
AC replacements typically run 15-20K for a decent system, install and all. At least last time I had to check.

Heat pumps are the way to go. Or conditioning air with well water temps or ground temps other ways, 50 degrees year round 6 feet down usually.
…and I’m not sure about getting an A/C from someone that can’t grammar, either
