A 1,600 sq ft home with average insulation, 8 ft ceilings, and average sun exposure comes out to about 2.67 tons. Plan on a 3.0-ton system, roughly $8,460.00 to $10,340.00 installed (demo estimate).

1,600 ÷ 600 × 1.00 × 1.00 × 1.00 = 2.67 tons

A Manual J visit measures the house. This demo does not send a request.

Nothing leaves this page. A real company would use this spot to schedule the visit.

This is a rule-of-thumb planning estimate only, not a Manual J load calculation, quote, or financial advice. Real sizing needs a site visit.
