Price check... HVAC return

Price check... HVAC return - 05/14/20 12:03 AM

Last year we got a quote for an in ceiling air return in our master bedroom to balance out the house. The price was around $3,000. Very easy attic access, and should be an easy job. Does the price of $3,000 sound right?

Is it a 6.5 HVAC?

Because if it’s not, you’re in the wrong forum.

How far is the air handler from your master bedroom?

Sounds very high to me. Question is whether it's very high, or very, very high.

No that literally means I could get in the attic and walk around and never crouch.

I can walk around my attic, everywhere there is decking I can stand upright and lift my arms and not come close to touching the roof.

BigPig, sometimes I wanna shake you. If you have the plenum space, that’s seriously not a hard one to do.
