contractor installed wrong heat pump - rheem rpql

frankiethefish

Hi guys,

Thanks to the recommendations on this site I hired a contractor to install a Rheem heat pump. RPQL-JEZ. However they put in the JAZ instead.

I told them they will need to adjust the price of the contract, however I have been looking everywhere online and can't find out how much the true price difference should be. I called Rheem, and a distributor but nobody would tell me.

Any suggestions on how much I should expect to have the contract reduced by?

Thanks,
