What Factors Affect the Cost of a Furnace Installation?

The cost of your installation takes into consideration factors including:

System Size: Furnaces are sized based on their ability to generate heat. Larger homes often require larger furnaces for efficient heating, increasing the cost.
System Efficiency: A furnace's efficiency is measured by its seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER) rating. The more energy-efficient a furnace is, the more it's likely to cost, but the more you save over time.
Deals and Specials: Advantage Air regularly offers specials and promotions that may help reduce costs.

Signs

Signs You Need a Replacement

Wondering if you need a furnace replacement? A new installation may be in your future if you start noticing these signs:

Your furnace is old. Typically, furnaces last between 15 and 20 years before they break down. If yours is approaching this age and needs significant repairs, it's likely best to consider a replacement. Even if it's still working, it's likely not nearly as efficient, and you run the risk of an unexpected breakdown.
Your power bills have been higher than usual. Furnaces become less efficient with age as components wear out or fail completely. Even if your furnace can still adequately heat your home, you might notice your power bills creeping up without an obvious reason when it's time to replace it.
Your furnace doesn't heat evenly. Older furnaces may not heat homes as efficiently, resulting in cold spots. As your furnace wears out, it can't distribute heat as evenly as it once did.
Short-cycling or constant running. If your furnace only runs for a short period before turning off or runs constantly without ever reaching the proper temperature in your home, you may need a replacement. This is often linked to degrading components.
Poor indoor air quality when running your furnace. Once you start noticing musty smells, dustiness, or burning odors when running your furnace, it's time for a professional inspection. While this could be an issue with a dirty filter or ductwork, it could also be caused by your furnace being on its last leg.
More frequent repairs. When repair costs start piling up on an older furnace, it's often more cost-effective to invest in a replacement rather than continue repairs. Routine maintenance may extend a furnace's lifespan, but it won't last forever. Costly components can and will wear out eventually. Choosing a replacement sooner rather than later can protect you from an unexpected breakdown.

System Selection

Heat Pump vs. Furnace: Which Is Best?

In Tucson, a heat pump is often a better choice. They're more energy-efficient while also providing cooling capabilities. Because Tucson is so mild, it's often more cost-effective to run a heat pump instead of a furnace.

With that said, a furnace is still a solid pick for heating if you already have a modern AC. Furnaces typically cost less to install and often last longer than heat pumps.

Ultimately, the right choice depends on your budget and preferences. Our NATE-certified experts are happy to walk you through the selection process.

FAQ

Furnace Install Frequently Asked Questions

It depends on the size and layout of your home. You can generally estimate your required furnace size based on square footage:

Under 1,200 sq. ft.: 40,000 to 60,000 BTUs
1,200 to 2,000 sq. ft.: 60,000 to 80,000 BTUs
2,000 to 3,000 sq. ft.: 80,000 to 115,000 BTUs

Don't rely solely on these estimates, though. It's best to have a professional heat load calculation performed. During this calculation, your tech considers all factors that can influence furnace size, including how insulated your home is, the number and condition of windows and doors, ceiling height, and layout of your home.

Furnace installations are so expensive because they include far more than just the furnace. You're also paying for transportation, disposal of an outdated system, and the labor required to install your new one safely. If your furnace installation requires extra work, such as adding a circuit breaker, updating the electrical panel, or modifying ductwork, expect the extra labor to roll into your overall costs.

Technically, yes, you can install a furnace yourself, but we don't recommend it. Improperly installed furnaces can be dangerous, potentially causing gas leaks, carbon monoxide buildup, or fires, so this job is best left to certified professionals.

Keep in mind that you must still comply with permitting, applicable codes, and safety inspections. Additionally, you risk voiding the manufacturer's warranty if you skip the licensed installation and maintenance. You also risk damaging your furnace or having to invest in costly repairs.

Yes, a high-efficiency furnace is often worth the extra money. While they cost more up front, they can convert significantly more fuel into heat than standard systems. This allows you to reduce your energy costs moving forward.

High-efficiency furnaces also typically qualify for additional rebates and tax credits at the federal, state, and local levels. This helps reduce your overall investment costs even further, resulting in additional long-term savings.

However, if you plan to move in the next few years, the payback period before you break even or see a benefit from choosing a high-efficiency furnace may be too long for you to recoup your initial investment.
