What impacts the installation price?
Consider replacing your American Standard furnace and central AC unit simultaneously, as it’s more cost-efficient than replacing them separately. As you navigate your options for a new furnace, you should know that several factors will impact installation spending.
Size
Regarding heating and cooling units, there is no “one size fits all.” The best thing is to call a certified HVAC technician to identify the size of the furnace most suited for your home. It will save you money on installation and energy bills. If the furnace is too big, it will not adequately heat your home. If, on the other hand, the unit is too small, it will struggle to circulate air. If your house is big, you will need a big furnace so that the installation price will be higher than with a smaller unit.
Energy Efficiency
The Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) reflects the heating system’s energy efficiency. The rating informs how much energy the furnace will convert into heat. The higher the AFUE, the more energy-efficient the system will be. A furnace with a high AFUE rating will save you money in the long run, but the spending for installation will be higher than with a model with a lower AFUE.
The comfort you want
The comfort you look to obtain with your heating and cooling system will impact the price of the furnace and its installation. A basic model can be a good choice if you only look for a furnace that heats your home. However, suppose you want more versatility and adjustability (various fan speeds run slower during warm weather and improve air circulation when the system doesn’t operate). In that case, you will have to spend the extra buck for it.
Do you plan to move house any time soon?
Your future moving plans can impact the price you should pay for a new furnace. For example, if the system breaks down and you don’t plan to move house any time soon, it’s wise to spend the high dollar on a highly-praised furnace. However, if you plan to move to a new home, it’s best to settle for a basic model. Why pay for the bells and whistles when you know you will be moving house soon?
