Who have you used to do that? Has anyone used Sears who I see advertises on this forum. What's the average cost for a new system in a 1400 sf Amarillo?

Thanks for your help.
3 years ago I had a frozen coil in a rental unit. I was told that there was a freon leak in the coil and it had to be replaced for $1700. I asked how they were so sure, I was not at TV at the time and was assured that the senior technician was very competent in troubleshooting. I decided to think about it, I let it thaw out by shutting off the unit for a day. I had the renter turn it back on and it has never skipped a beat to date.
