This is Turtle.

Cheap time to get something done in Texas or Louisiana is the Winter times as
you may call it that. in these two states business slows down a good bit and
they can work a deal if they wanted to.

You may do the duct work but depending on your skill as to saying yes or no. Now
no matter what you must have a Manual D run on the house to tell the size of
each duct that should go to each room. In all cases you must get a manual D to
see the sizing.

You must have also a manual J run to tell the amount of heating and cooling you
need to install in your home. Without a Manual J calculation run on the house,
just forget about the installer that does not do this. these words should be set
in stone.
