Methodology
Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through the estate's fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2).
18 of the 66 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 48 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 5 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere.
The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in USD (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 378 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded.
Derivation as chartered: the SPREAD, which is what no single contractor's page can show: for each system type (split central, heat pump, package, ductless) x tonnage band x SEER2 tier, the median, the interquartile range and the full min-max of the installed price every Florida contractor publishes, cut by county and by HVHZ/coastal exposure; beside it the count of contractors publishing a number at all against those who quote only on survey, the equipment-versus-labour split where a contractor breaks it out, and the add-ons (permit, duct replacement, crane, electrical) priced separately so the headline is comparable; repriced-since the previous read, which is how the R-454B refrigerant transition shows up as a number rather than an anecdote
378 candidate sentences on these pages were refused by a reviewer; each refusal and its reason is recorded in the review ledger.
