- PermitRequired
Mechanical permit pulled by your licensed HVAC contractor; covers equipment, refrigerant, and the electrical disconnect.
- SEER2 minimum13.4 SEER2 (North)
Federal North-region minimum for new split-system AC. Higher tiers cut bills and unlock rebates.
- Load calculationRequired (Manual J)
Sizing by load calc — not rule of thumb — prevents an oversized unit that short-cycles and never dehumidifies.

- Good to know—
Indiana Residential Code (2018 IRC base) requires HVAC equipment to be sized per ACCA Manual J/S, and gas-furnace changeouts must bring flue/venting up to current Mechanical Code even on like-for-like swaps.

The scope of work, such as adding a coil cleaning or refrigerant check, also affects cost. Indiana's permit requirement adds a small fee, and local labor rates reflect the smaller market. Annual maintenance plans (two visits) range from $125 to $275, offering savings over single tune-ups.
