Signs it’s time to replace your furnace
When a New System Makes More Sense than Another Repair
If your furnace is older and repairs are becoming routine, replacement is often the more predictable option for comfort and safety. Many systems begin to lose efficiency after 15 to 20 years, especially if airflow issues or past repairs have added strain. Rising heating bills, inconsistent room temperatures, and repeated breakdowns are common signals that the system is nearing the end. If there is a confirmed safety concern such as a heat exchanger issue, replacing the system is usually the responsible next step.
Our furnace installation process
Proper Sizing, Clean Workmanship, and Safety Checks
We begin with a home evaluation and load calculation so the system matches your house instead of relying on guesswork. You will receive clear options, including efficiency levels and comfort features, along with a written quote before the job is scheduled. On installation day, we remove the old equipment, install the new furnace to code, and integrate it with the ductwork and thermostat for consistent performance. After startup, we test operation, verify airflow, and confirm safe venting and clean combustion for gas systems.
High-efficiency heating and comfort upgrades
Steadier Warmth and Better Control
A modern furnace can do more than just heat the house, especially if your current system runs loud, short cycles, or leaves rooms cold. Higher-efficiency equipment can help reduce fuel use while improving temperature consistency throughout the home. Features like staged heating and variable-speed blowers often make the home feel more even and comfortable on cold mornings. If you are also thinking about improving indoor air, installation is a good time to add compatible upgrades that support airflow and filtration.
Warranty, support, and planning for the full system
Installation that Protects Your Investment
Your new furnace will include manufacturer warranty coverage, and Apex Residential Solutions also stands behind the quality of our work. We will explain how filter changes and routine maintenance help protect performance and support warranty requirements. If your air conditioner is also aging, we can discuss whether pairing the systems is worthwhile for efficiency and long-term value. You will have a clear plan for next steps, whether you are replacing only the furnace or upgrading the full HVAC system.
Furnace installation FAQs
Common Questions About Replacement and
Upgrades
How much does it cost to replace a furnace in Atlanta?
Cost depends on the type of furnace, efficiency level, and whether changes are needed for venting, duct connections, or thermostat controls. The most accurate way to price the job is to size the system properly and confirm installation requirements at your home. Apex Residential Solutions provides a written estimate that outlines equipment, labor, and any recommended upgrades. You will know the scope and cost before scheduling the install.
How long does furnace installation take?
Many furnace replacements can be completed in one day, especially when the new system is similar to the old one. Timing can change if ductwork corrections, vent updates, or electrical adjustments are needed for safe operation. Apex Residential Solutions will set expectations before installation day so you know what the schedule looks like. Our goal is to restore heat quickly while still completing thorough testing and safety checks.
Do I need a bigger furnace if some rooms stay cold?
Not always, and oversizing can actually create comfort issues like short cycling and uneven temperatures. Cold rooms are often caused by airflow problems, duct leaks, insulation gaps, or thermostat placement rather than furnace size alone. Apex Residential Solutions evaluates the home as a system and recommends the correct sizing based on a load calculation. If airflow improvements are needed, we will explain those options clearly.
Should I replace my AC at the same time as my furnace?
If both systems are older and share key components, replacing them together can improve efficiency and reduce future labor costs. A matched system can also help performance and comfort because the components are designed to work together. Apex Residential Solutions can quote both approaches so you can compare long-term value and timing. If only one system truly needs replacement, we will tell you that as well.
Gas furnace or heat pump, which is better in Georgia?
Heat pumps work well in Metro Atlanta because winters are generally mild and heat pumps provide both heating and cooling. Gas furnaces can deliver strong heat during colder snaps and may be preferred depending on your home and fuel availability. Some homeowners choose a dual-fuel setup that blends both for efficiency across temperature swings. Apex Residential Solutions can help you compare options based on comfort goals, operating cost, and your home’s layout.
