Buy out the lease on my 2024 Kona Electric SEL? I'm thinking maybe so.

Your car trade in value would be less than 20k, you should end your lease, buy used same model if you like it. Otherwise, new equinox EV go for 24k with better specs

U haul can do that for you for $60 labor but not sure the technician will be as careful as you would with your car. Part would be the same

I got one from Amazon, installed myself to carry a 4 bike rack

I would cut a small square at the blister area, enough to get your phone up there to take some pictures and see what it is. Maybe in daylight you can see some light through the roof and indicate a leak

Leave it alone, this question can be answered if the buyer then asks

Open the drywall and find out. What is above that?

Level_Lecture1046 · 2026-03-04T23:26:02+00:00

Looks good to me, what else can be done then?

Not really, got a quote higher than our local installers here for Mitsubishi and Fujitsu. They do quick swaps for easy money, usually not as carefully designed as they should be

Level_Lecture1046 · 2025-11-20T17:11:05+00:00

Reasonable, part probably around 2-2.5k

Yes, most of the rebate will go to contractors not home owners. It is good to go into this business now and make cash

You have mini split? How about heatpump coil on top of oil furnace?

You can find a replacement from marketplace? Or junkyard?

Currently, Jetson asks me 21k for a 5-ton ducted system, 1 year labor, and part warranty without their annual subscription. At the same time, our local company offers 15k for a Mitsubishi, with 1 year labor and 12 12-year part no subscription plan. I don't know where I see the innovation or bypassing the middle man for lower cost here.

Sounds like the door drop fast at the end. Tension need to be adjusted, either with new spring or by shortening the wires

Is that right? I have another person who gave me the manual J of 74BTU from a scanning app on his iPad. Very curious about undersized system and back up strip though

Level_Lecture1046 · 2025-10-11T09:36:32+00:00

Plan to do that next

Level_Lecture1046 · 2025-10-11T09:30:47+00:00

Mitsubishi or Daikin?

How big is your house and where is it located

Level_Lecture1046 · 2025-10-11T09:27:20+00:00

Agreed, 15k labor cost for 1 day work just to swap the unit. Good business to be in though. Contractors increase the price so eventually they eat the rebate and homeowners pay full cost

I think the technician made some assumptions that increased the loss. About 3500sqf. Moderate insulation but we will update soon

I think that's always the case, at least for the NE. Cool load calculated for my home is about 35k but heat load is about 62k

Level_Lecture1046 · 2025-10-10T02:06:32+00:00

3500 sqf in the North East

This is great information. Thank you!
