How Much Should a Furnace Cost in Charlotte?

September 24, 2016

Nobody looks forward to the day that they have to replace their furnace. But alas, it’s part of life, and Charlotte 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, like the lifestyle and habits of individuals in the home. Health ailments may also result in air filtration systems, which also helps you decide which furnace is best for you. Even collections can help you decide 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 items so you may consider investing in a whole-home humidifier in your HVAC system.

Another thing to consider is the home itself. How many windows are there and which direction do they face? What level of insulation do you current have and how efficient is it at trapping air in your home? How new the ductwork is, the favored power (gas, solar, etc.), and even home design can go into deciding which furnace is right for you.

 

Komfort Air Service Experts will set-up a complimentary consultation where they will visit your home and evaluate your current set-up. The team 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 traits.

The next thing that will go into determining the price of your furnace is which company you select to install your system. One contractor may have the system you want at a lower cost, but be careful and make sure that they are licensed, bonded, and insured given 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.
