It’s never fun thinking about having to replace your furnace. But alas, it’s part of life, and Richmond homeownership, and so is purchasing a new furnace. So when that awful day finds you, where do you start?
The cost of a new furnace will fluctuate depending on several factors, like the lifestyle and habits of people in the home. Health issues may also mean you need air filtration systems, which also factors into which furnace is best for your family. Even hobbies can factor into which furnace is right for your home. Does anyone collect art or is someone a wine connoisseur? Humidity levels can impact the integrity of these products so you may consider investing in a whole-home humidifier in your heating and cooling system.
Something else to take a look at is the home itself. How many windows does your home have and which direction are they facing? What type of insulation is currently installed and how well does it trap air indoors? How well installed the ductwork is, the chosen power (gas, solar, etc.), and even home layout can affect which furnace is ideal for you.
Eveready Service Experts will set-up a complimentary consultation where they will come to your home and analyze your current set-up. The technician will go over your options with you and present you a complimentary estimate on a new furnace installation based on their review of your home’s structure and unique features.
Another factor that will determine the price of your furnace is which contractor you choose to perform the installation. One contractor may have the equipment you want at a lower cost, but proceed with caution and make sure that they are licensed, bonded, and insured just in case something should happen while they’re on your site. In the event a contractor was injured on your property and the contractor was not insured, you can be held liable.
