Furnace Installation and Replacement in Scottsdale, AZ
Scottsdale’s Go-To Local HVAC Specialists
Whether your furnace is no longer heating evenly, short cycling, or using more energy than it used to, we can help. Sometimes, it’s more cost-effective to replace rather than repair your furnace. Our technicians can help you make this decision.
At Champion Air, we’re highly committed to providing quality service. Our team emphasizes prompt response time and guides you through everything you need to know about your furnace’s problems and how to fix them.
Our Furnace Replacement Process
When we show up to install your furnace, you can expect us to follow a few common steps.
Step 1: Prepare the Space. After removing the old furnace, we get the space ready. This may require us to remove some of the ductwork or flue pipes.
Step 2: Configure the Ducting System. Based on your current setup, your HVAC technician puts the furnace where it should go and determines how to best run your ductwork, PVC pipes, and drain.
Step 3: Connect Everything. Once the furnace is in place, it’s time to connect it to any ductwork, vent pipes, gas or electrical supplies, and drain lines.
Step 4: Perform a Test Run. Once everything is connected, we perform a series of prechecks and start up the furnace to ensure it’s working properly.
How Much Do Furnace Replacements Cost in Scottsdale?
On average, you can expect a new furnace to cost between $5,000 and $8,500. This can be a significant household expense, but Champion Air can help you get the best price possible. We provide free estimates, rebates, special offers, and in-house financing to keep the price down.
Factors Affecting Furnace Replacement Costs in Scottsdale
Your furnace installation can vary in cost based on factors such as:
- Furnace Type and Size: The larger a furnace is, the more expensive it’s likely to be. Beyond that, oil furnaces tend to be more expensive than natural gas, while electric furnaces tend to cost less. A dual-fuel furnace is typically the most expensive option.
- Efficiency: Higher-efficiency furnaces tend to be costlier upfront, but can offer significant savings on heating long-term.
- Installation Requirements: Part of your quote includes the labor necessary to install your new furnace. If your furnace needs to be placed in a difficult-to-reach area or requires extra venting or new ductwork or gas lines, it’s going to cost more.
- Additional Features: Many furnaces offer additional features such as enhanced air filtration, Wi-Fi connectivity, and extra zoning capabilities which can increase the cost.
Signs Your Furnace Needs to Be Replaced
Not sure if you need a replacement or a repair? It’s always best to ask a professional their opinion after they’ve had a chance to evaluate your furnace, but these signs indicate it’s time for some sort of action:
- Furnace Age: Furnaces typically last 15-20 years. As furnaces age, they break down more frequently.
- Unusual Noises: Some noises, such as banging, squeaking, and rattling indicate mechanical issues.
- Uneven Temperatures: If your home doesn’t heat evenly, it could be due to the wrong-sized unit, inefficiency in the furnace, or ductwork problems.
- Increased Energy Bills: If your energy bills suddenly increase, your system may be inefficient, likely due to age or mechanical failure.
- Irregular Cycling: If your furnace seems to start and stop more frequently, it could be due to a mechanical issue, an issue with the ignition system, or your thermostat failing.
Champion Air can handle most furnace problems, perform HVAC maintenance and inspections, or can recommend a replacement if necessary.
Frequently Asked Questions
How Do I Know if it's Time to Replace My Furnace?
If your furnace is around 15 years old, it’s probably better to replace it rather than repair it. Otherwise, common furnace problems like strange noises or irregular operation may mean it’s time for a replacement.
What Factors Should I Consider When Choosing a New Furnace?
The size and type of furnace should be the first things you consider, along with existing infrastructure, your available space, whether you want additional features, and how efficient you want your unit to be.
Can I Install a New Furnace Myself or Should I Hire a Professional?
It’s always best to hire a professional to install a furnace. Installing a furnace can be dangerous. Local regulations can also limit you, especially if you need a permit.
