Does $40,000 for air conditioning for a 5,000 SF wharehouse with 20 ft. ceilings seem off base? We received this $40,000 quote recently and that seems way overpriced. What do you think a reasonable quote would be for a ground up air conditioning system in a 5000 sf wharehouse should be? Thanks in advance.

Forgive me if this sounds smart-ass, but are we talking about eighty window units, a rooftop package or maybe six of them, a multizone unit with open compressors, DX or chilled-water, water-cooled or air-cooled condensers etc. More info please.

$40,000.00 does not seam high to me for a complete system. It’s all relative to what your cooling. This is not a home were talking about here. Your going to be looking at Roofing, Electrical, Ductwork, Plumping… Not to mention a Crane and possible structural work. Right now I am waiting on delivery of a 20ton multi zone unit, with controls and zoning this job is costing the client over 100G.
