Default Air conditioning price

In Pennsylvania a 1500 sq. ft. 2 story house.
26 years old.
Gas heat pump installed now.
How much would it cost to have a new heater & central air conditioner
installed.
Asking because i am thinking about buying this house & it doesn't have
central air.


Between $2,000 and $2,000,000. Start with your local contractor. Have them
do the load calculations. If it has never had central air, it will be more,
as they will have to put ducts that weren't put in the first place.

Asking a question like this is like asking what the weather is like
tomorrow. Tomorrow HERE is 102. But, it may be different where you live.
I know you want a good estimate so you know if you are being given a good
price or being gouged. And that is smart, smart, smart, for an uninformed
consumer like yourself. (Why else would you ask this in a newsgroup.)
Sorry, Punkie. You have to do your own homework. Find your answers before
someone hands you a pen.
