Furnace Price

QUESTION:

I live in small 2 story 1400 sqft house in Toronto Ontario. My Coolman furnace blower died out and I am getting it replaced. I am also replacing my 1.5 ton Lennox Central Air Condition as well, it is working fine, but I think it is cheaper to replace both Furnace and AC together.
I got a quote for both Furnace and Central AC installed for:
Keeprite 2 Stage High Efficiency 92% Furnace 75000 BTU for $2600 including GST (model IIS 90)
Ameristar (American Standard) 1.5 ton 13 SEER with coil for $1900 include GST
5 Years Parts and Labour Included on both units.
Also I can deffer payment for 1 year no cost.
All funds are in Canadian dollars, as of August 2007
Please let me know if I am getting a good deal, or I am being ripped off?

ANSWER:

You're getting ripped off by at least $1900, because you're replacing perfectly good A/C. It should not make a diff to the installer. If he told you otherwise, get another one.
Even if your old A/C is Very low efficiency, in Ontario you'll never recover the cost of new one, based on savings.
