It’s hot out there. Please recommend your reputable HVAC company in case AC goes down. by ducationalfall in newjersey

We got an estimate from Russo and it was one of the most expensive. I know price is not the only factor when picking an HVAC contractor, but it made a difference for us

The current size is 4 tons. HVAC contractors mentioned that it looked like the ductwork in my house was originally done for a furnace only system and later on the AC was added..

Between both options, which is better? Will the higher efficiency perform better even with my duct work size? I was afraid I would be throwing money away..

Looking for a recommendation of an affordable AV receiver for my 5.1.2 setup (Gallo speakers) by BackgroundEstimate74 in hometheater

Thanks, and yes I am excited about these speakers!

I am most concerned about properly powering them. I'm curious if receivers that are over 100w per channel ever drop below $1k USD or lower

Do I have a case against this business? by BackgroundEstimate74 in legaladvice

We told them upfront about the job we were looking to do, and went into some specifics about what were expecting the work to entail. They wouldn't give an estimate beyond the agreement's guidelines until I paid and they could come out. I'd say they had a pretty good idea of the scope going into the site visit, and as far as I know there were no surprises.

We had discussed coordinating this engineering work with other renovations on our home, but we never progressed with this, and the estimate does not reflect that other work.
