Thinking about a Rheem AC but unsure what it really costs?

f your current AC is on its last leg, you’re probably asking: “How much will it cost to install a new Rheem air conditioner in my home?” You’re not alone.

As a Comfort Guide serving the Steubenville area for over 20 years, I get this question every week. The truth is, the cost can vary—but it doesn’t have to be a mystery.

A fully installed Rheem air conditioner typically costs between $4,000 and $10,300, depending on your home size, system efficiency, and how complex the installation is.

2 Ton$4,300–$6,800
3 Ton$5,000–$8,000

One recent job in Richmond: a 3-ton Rheem Achiever Plus with a new thermostat and line set came out to $7,200.
