How Much Should a Furnace Cost in Canada?

September 24, 2016

It’s a terrible feeling when you know you’re close to having to replace your furnace. Unfortunately, it’s part of life, and Canada homeownership, and so is budgeting for a new furnace. So when that scary day arrives, where do you start?

The price of a new furnace will vary depending on several factors, such as the lifestyle and habits of residents in the home. Health problems may also mean you need air filtration systems, which also helps determine which furnace is right for your home. Even interests can factor into which furnace is right for your home. Do you collect art or is someone a wine connoisseur? Humidity levels can alter the integrity of these products so you may consider investing in a whole-home humidifier in your heating and air conditioning system.

Another thing to take a look at is your actual home. How many windows are there and which direction do they face? What level of insulation is currently installed and how effective is it at trapping air inside? How new the ductwork is, the favored power (gas, solar, etc.), and even home blueprint can go into deciding which furnace is ideal for your family.

 

Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning will set-up a complimentary consultation where they will visit your home and assess your current set-up. They will discuss your options with you and provide you a free estimate on a new furnace installation based on their review of your home’s construction and unique traits.

Something else that will determine the price of your furnace is which business you select to install your system. One business may have the equipment you want at a lower cost, but proceed with caution and confirm that they are licensed, bonded, and insured in the event something should happen while they’re on your property. In the event a contractor was injured on your property and the contractor was not insured, you can be held liable.
