My house is 20 years old and with two units, a 4 on downstairs and a 2 ton upstairs....I think 12 seer.....I had coils replaced in both back in 2012/2013 (one one summer and other next). Both units still use r22 freon and look their age but have been running fine until Friday night.
The 4 ton needed a capacitor to get back up and running saturday morning. A friend of my father in laws works for a AC distributor and he was the one that came out to fix my unit. He saw the condition of my units and said he could get me a good deal on replacing them. He said my coils are good and match up with new condensers.
His offer for a 4 ton Goodman 14 seer is $2900 installed and with flushing the lines of r22 and $2000 for my 2 ton doing the same....$4900 out the door.
Now I am in the process of getting plans done to build a house.....should be looking to sell my current house probably April/May of 21. As for as resale or just selling point, is it worth putting $4900 and having new units vs old rusty looking 20 year old units when I go to sell? I just put a new roof on last week and replastered the pool in April of 19....so with new AC units thats a remodel of 3 major issues and I would think would be a good selling point that would pay off in selling price vs giving credits off selling price for replacement?
1)Good price on those units?
2)Good investment?
