i had unit installed for under 3k......duct work was already there cuz i have forced air heat. so....cost of labor and duct work depending on how big your house is...my house is small so i didnt need a big unit. As for crap blowing out of ducts, thinkin they didnt have any filters on their returns.

Or their filter is dirty. We change ours every year. It gets pretty full of crap in one season of use.

I just got a couple quotes, I also already have ductwork and a 15 year old furnace. Low end so far was just shy of $2k for a 2 ton unit.
