Projected cost is abt 1K but that is partly because of redundancy of thermostat and oversizing of titanium heat exchanger.

The Electrolux is using R12. Why not use R134a condensing units? R12 will be expensive and not easily available soon.

So your Ti exchanger bought already? I am still deciding on the Tecumseh or the Maneurop units or the easily available household single split at 9000 BTU.

Its using R22. 1/2 HP compressor with 1HP Ti heat exchanger. R22 is cheaper to buy, cheaper to charge and yet with higher energy efficiency.

The Ti exchanger is from Alvy which is tested and proven by a few guys already
