The cost of furnace installation ranges from $1,000 to $1,600, depending on the brand and model of the furnace, as well as the existing conditions. The installation includes the cost of running PVC piping for the flue vent to the side wall of the house, modifying ducts, setting up the air filtration system, installing drain pipes, wiring the thermostat, and connecting gas piping for the new furnace. It is crucial to have a qualified contractor perform the installation to ensure that the gas piping and flue vents are installed correctly, as improper installation can pose serious hazards.

Typically, the cost of installation includes most scenarios for furnace replacement, except in cases involving an oil furnace or a furnace installed in the 1980s or earlier. In these situations, the cost of ductwork may be significantly higher, as the entire cold air return duct will need to be replaced, and the existing gas piping may not be compatible with the new systems.

Furnaces require regular maintenance, and the ideal time to do this is in the fall, before winter arrives. Keeping the furnace clean and changing the furnace filter regularly is essential. Safety switches should be checked at least once a year, and the ignition system should be cleaned prior to the heating season. Additionally, the furnace humidifier pad and its drain system need to be replaced annually, as mold can develop in the drain hose and potentially affect the entire ventilation system.
