Replacing HVAC system in a brownstone

We have central air/heat already installed in our brownstone (so ductwork already in place). We need to replace it soon. Wondering if anyone has recommendations of who to work with – to both advise on the most efficient new system, and to install. Thanks.

Main issue is that older ductwork may be sized to work with the prior unit or unit type installed, it’s not necessarily a one-to-one change. Best bet is to have a couple HVAC subs walkthrough for general opinions and/or reach out to smaller mep engineers in the area…but the sub route is better.
