Knowing absolutely nothing about HVAC, how does one determine the size (in tons) of an existing unit scheduled to be replaced?
Thanks much for help!

Most unit sizes are incorpoated into model #'s. What is your Make, Model, & Serial #'. This usually gives you all the information you need to know.

Thanks for responding... It looks to be a Payne (no pun intended), Model # 585FPO48080. The plates are very worn and difficult to read...hope I got it right. Thanks again!
