If Replacement Is the Answer
What Determines a Furnace Replacement
A replacement is selected for the building, the ductwork, the venting and the available options.
- Sizing from a heat-loss calculation, rather than from the rating plate on the old unit
- Venting: what the new appliance requires, and what the building can accommodate
- Ductwork condition and sizing, which caps what any furnace can deliver
- Whether a heat pump belongs in the plan, alongside or instead
- Efficiency tier, weighed against what it actually costs to get there in this house

Before Winter

Repair or Replace
What We Look For
We assess the furnace, the failure and the rest of the system before recommending repair or replacement.
- Age and service history of the existing unit
- What has failed, and whether that failure tends to be the first of several
- How the rest of the system is performing: airflow, ducts, distribution
- Whether a heat pump is a sensible alternative for your house
- Rebate eligibility, which can change the arithmetic
