Your right..I checked my bid and the ruud is a 80% 2 stage variable speed blower furnace. With "N" style coil. Humidifier New touch screen thermostat, out door pad, whip, disconnect box. 8,222 As for the xr15...here is what was at the bottom of my bid sheet....Install..XR15, model #4TWR5042 for an additional $900.00*Not necessarily the best decision because the rating is still only 14.0 seer. So, could I replace the heat pump and not the furnace? I think I get caught up in the sales hype. The "N" coil and humidifier sounded good at the time. Also, the salesman said lenox does not match up with anything else so will the furnace work with the trane? Also..I don't think I will get the tax credit with the trane but at a price difference of 4600 it wouldn't matter. Thanks for giving me advice, Dawn

For everyone that helped me figure out what to do, or was interested...here is the sofa, with the cushions. YAY! And yes, the hanging stained glass artwork (which was a separate thread) has been returned home. <laugh> Now, I will be working on some french chairs I have hanging around. ;)

Home Interiors & Jodie White, Sorry guys. I'm new to this. Obviously, i need to create an Ideabook! I tend to go more towards muted brown, red, yellow/gold, rust colors (in past), but open to other somewhat neutral palettes. I actually love the console, but was considering an antique cream color (if I could make that work?). My tastes tend to be traditional, rustic, a little farmhouse (pottery barn, restoration hardware, ballard designs) but with so many current needs, all those in a TIGHT budget! Aktillery9, i do like all of those looks. My husband did just tell me, due to wiring, there is chance we may not be able to mount on flat wall as i hoped, so i may be forced to go back to corner console again. :( When I get a chance, I'll post some of my fav looks.

Find a curtain you love to start your color scheme and wall paint color for the room, get the 93 inch length, hang at a minimum a one inch diameter rod at the ceiling or midway between top of window and ceiling. Have rods extend 8-10 inches beyond window sides; you will need 120 inch wide rod I would think? Check out home goods. Find panels you love that are the right length, and buy four panels, two for each side of window for fullness. Then pick a paint color that matches or blends with your curtains, on the paint chip, go two shades lighter than the color you actually like. Paint the walls, hang the curtains, replace your furnishings. One of the best books I have ever read on first time design/decorating is call Big Design, Small Budget by Betsy Helmuth....see if you can get it from your library; a wealth of practical, workable, budget minded interior design how to's and advice....I refer to mind a lot. Good luck!
