Enter your system’s age, refrigerant, and the repair quote you were given. We run the same math HVAC pros use — the $5,000 rule, the 50% rule, and the R-22 check — and show you a 2026 replacement cost range for your system.
Not sure of a detail? Best guess is fine — the verdict explains which answers mattered.
Estimates use published 2026 national cost data (see SOURCES.md) adjusted by region. They are planning ranges, not quotes — your quotes come from local shops below. This tool never sells your information; nothing is sent anywhere unless you submit the quote form.
Free, no obligation. Your system details from the calculator ride along, so the shop’s estimator walks in already knowing the job — age, size, refrigerant, and the repair quote you already got. We send your request to at most three local shops. No lead auctions, no five phone calls in a minute.
Pilot note: we are onboarding partner shops now, starting in Las Vegas and Southern California. If we don’t have a partner in your area yet, we’ll tell you straight — and your details go nowhere.
Reclaimed R-22 now runs $90–$200 a pound installed, and every R-22 system is 17+ years old. The full repair-or-replace math, in plain English.
