Your energy bills go down because modern furnaces use 30-40% less gas than systems from the 90s. You stop worrying about whether your heating system will make it through another New England winter.

Most importantly, you regain your sanity. No more middle-of-the-night panic when you hear strange noises from the basement. No more bundling up inside your own home.

New Furnace Installation Process

Here's Exactly What Happens Next

First, we come out and assess your current system and your home’s heating needs. We measure your space, check your existing ductwork, and determine the right size furnace for your Halifax home. No guesswork, no overselling you on equipment you don’t need.

Next, we handle all the permits and paperwork. Most Halifax furnace installations require permits, and we take care of that entire process so you don’t have to deal with town hall.

On installation day, we remove your old furnace safely and install your new system. It typically takes 6–8 hours for a standard replacement. We test everything thoroughly, make sure your thermostat is working correctly, and walk you through your new system’s operation.

Before we leave, we clean up completely and provide you with all warranty information and maintenance recommendations. Your new furnace comes with manufacturer warranties, plus our guarantee on the installation work.

Halifax homes often need specific considerations for furnace installation, especially in older houses with particular basement layouts or existing ductwork challenges. We’ve seen it all and know how to work with your home’s specific setup. Whether you’re dealing with low ceilings, tight spaces, or unusual venting requirements, we’ll find the right solution for your situation.

How long does furnace installation take in Halifax homes?

Most furnace installations in Halifax take 6-8 hours for a standard replacement where we’re swapping out an existing system. If we need to modify ductwork, upgrade gas lines, or work around notable basement layouts common in older Halifax homes, it might take a full day. We’ll give you an accurate timeline during our initial assessment. Emergency replacements can often be completed the same day you call, depending on equipment availability and the complexity of your specific installation.

What size furnace do I need for my Halifax home?

Furnace sizing depends on your home’s square footage, insulation levels, ceiling height, and how well your house holds heat. Many Halifax homes built in the 70s and 80s need 80,000-120,000 BTU furnaces, but newer, well-insulated homes might only need 60,000-80,000 BTUs. We never guess at sizing—we do a proper heat load calculation that considers your specific home’s characteristics. An oversized furnace wastes energy and doesn’t heat evenly, while an undersized unit won’t keep you comfortable during cold snaps.

Do I need permits for furnace installation in Halifax?

Yes, furnace installation in Halifax requires permits from the town. We handle the entire permit process for you, including applications, inspections, and any required documentation. The permit confirms your installation meets local building codes and safety requirements. Some homeowners try to skip this step, but unpermitted work can cause problems when you sell your home and may void your insurance coverage if something goes wrong. We include all permit costs in our installation quote so there are no surprises.

Can you install a furnace during a winter emergency?

Absolutely. We understand that furnaces don’t pick convenient times to fail, especially during Halifax’s harsh winters. We keep common furnace models in stock specifically for emergency installations and can often get your heat restored the same day you call. If your specific furnace model isn’t immediately available, we can sometimes provide temporary heating solutions while we get the right equipment. Emergency installations do cost more than scheduled replacements, but we’re upfront about pricing and focus on getting your family warm as quickly as possible.

What's the difference between standard and high-efficiency furnaces?

High-efficiency furnaces (90%+ AFUE rating) extract more heat from the same amount of gas, which means lower monthly bills. They require different venting than standard furnaces—usually PVC pipes instead of metal chimneys. In Halifax’s climate, a high-efficiency furnace typically pays for itself in energy savings within 7-10 years. However, they cost more upfront and have more difficult components. Standard efficiency furnaces (80-85% AFUE) are less expensive initially and simpler to maintain, but your monthly gas bills will be higher. We’ll help you calculate which option makes more financial sense for your specific situation.

How do I know if I need furnace replacement or just repair?

If your furnace is over 15 years old and needing frequent repairs, replacement usually makes more sense financially. Other signs include uneven heating throughout your home, yellow burner flames instead of blue, excessive dust, or monthly gas bills that keep climbing. In Halifax, we also see furnaces fail prematurely due to lack of maintenance during our harsh winters. If repair costs exceed 50% of a new furnace’s price, or if your furnace has cracked heat exchangers or other major component failures, replacement is typically the smarter choice. We’ll give you honest advice about whether repair or replacement makes more sense for your specific situation.
