Heating Installation

New furnace installation in Middle Tennessee typically ranges from $3,500 to $8,000+ depending on system size, efficiency rating (AFUE), brand, and home requirements. High-efficiency models cost more upfront but save significantly on monthly heating bills. We provide free, detailed quotes with all costs included.

Heating system size depends on your home's square footage, insulation, ceiling height, windows, and climate zone. An oversized system wastes energy and cycles frequently, while an undersized system can't keep up on cold days. We perform Manual J load calculations during your free assessment to determine the exact size needed for optimal comfort and efficiency.

For Middle Tennessee, gas furnaces are typically most cost-effective if you have natural gas service, providing powerful heating at lower operating costs. Electric furnaces work well for mild climates or where gas isn't available. Heat pumps offer both heating and cooling with excellent efficiency in our moderate climate. We'll recommend the best option based on your utility availability, budget, and home characteristics.

Most residential furnace installations are completed in 4-8 hours (1 day). Complex jobs requiring ductwork modifications, electrical upgrades, or gas line work may take 1-2 days. We'll provide a specific timeline during your consultation and work efficiently to minimize disruption.

AFUE (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) measures furnace efficiency. In Tennessee, we recommend at least 80% AFUE for basic models, 90-96% AFUE for mid-tier, and 96%+ for premium high-efficiency condensing furnaces. Higher AFUE means lower monthly heating bills. A 95% AFUE furnace converts 95% of fuel to heat versus only 80% with older models.

Yes. New furnaces typically include a 10-year parts warranty from the manufacturer, with some premium models offering lifetime heat exchanger warranties. We also provide a workmanship warranty on our installation. Extended warranty options may be available. We handle all warranty registration and future warranty service.
