Furnace Replacement Frequently Asked Questions
What is the lifespan of a furnace? When should it be replaced?
The average furnace lasts about 15 years. However, frequent repairs, improper installation, or an incorrectly sized system can shorten its lifespan. If your furnace is aging and experiencing recurring problems, replacement may be the most cost effective option.
What size furnace do I need?
The right furnace size depends on your home’s square footage, insulation, airflow, window placement, and overall heat loss. A professional load calculation ensures your system is properly sized for maximum efficiency and comfort.
Can I install or replace a furnace myself?
No. Furnace installation should always be completed by a licensed professional. It involves gas lines, electrical connections, ventilation systems, and compliance with local codes. Incorrect installation can result in safety hazards and may void manufacturer warranties.
What factors should I consider when choosing a heating system?
We provide personalized consultations to evaluate your home’s layout, heating requirements, energy efficiency goals, and budget. Our team will recommend the best system to meet your specific needs.
What does a new furnace installation cost?
Costs vary depending on the furnace type, brand, efficiency rating, and installation requirements. Contact us for a detailed quote tailored to your home.
Heat pump vs. furnace. Which is better for my home?
Heat Pumps
Heat pumps provide both heating and cooling by transferring heat from the air or ground. They are highly energy efficient and perform well in moderate climates.
Furnaces
Furnaces are a reliable heating solution that deliver consistent warmth and perform exceptionally well in colder climates.
Dual Fuel Systems
A dual fuel system combines a heat pump with a gas furnace to deliver the best of both technologies. The heat pump operates during milder temperatures for maximum efficiency, and the furnace automatically takes over during extreme cold for dependable warmth.
Dual fuel systems are an excellent option for homeowners who want improved energy efficiency, lower operating costs, and reliable comfort throughout every season.

Replacing Vs Repairing Your Heating System
There’s no question that a new furnace is definitely an investment for your home, and most families want to make sure that there isn’t room to repair their old furnace before opting for a new furnace installation.
While getting the most out of your current furnace is important, there’s also a time to retire the old system and find one that works better for you and your family.
It may be time to replace your current furnace if:
- Your furnace is over fifteen years old
- Your furnace is only producing cool air
- Your furnace is requiring more repairs and maintenance than its worth
- Your energy bills are skyrocketing
- Your furnace is circulating between on and off without cause
- Your furnace is making unusual noises
- Your furnace is no longer heating your home properly

How Can I Save With a Hybrid Heating System?
A hybrid heating system (furnace/boiler + heat pump) is perhaps the most efficient and effective way to heat your home, offering energy savings and more.
1. Save Energy
Hybrid system adapts the energy type to the prevailing temperature. Thus, running a hybrid system is more energy-efficient than running a furnace & an AC.
2. Save the Planet
By reducing your reliance on a fossil fuel powered heating system, you lower your household’s carbon footprint.
3. Versatility
Heat pumps provide heating and cooling in a single system so you don’t have to buy an AC.
4. Save on Installation
On top of the energy cost savings you can experience with a hybrid heating system, you can take advantage of grants and rebates and save even more! There are grants and rebates available that can save you thousands of dollars on the installation of your hybrid heating system.
Why Purchase a New Furnace?
There isn’t just one universal reason as to why it may be time to install a new furnace in your home, as every home is different and every family’s comfort needs are not the same. There are several reasons why a family may consider the installation of a new furnace depending on what they’re searching for in a home comfort system:
- Interested in a quieter model
- The old furnace is not as powerful as it once was
- An increase in utility bills from the old furnace
- Interested in a furnace that is energy and cost efficient
- Cool spots in the home/need for supplemental cooling
- An increase in maintenance and repair cost from the old furnace
