High-Efficiency Furnace Pricing

The average price of a furnace in Winnipeg, Manitoba (including installation) is $2900-$4800.

It’s important to make the right decision, in sync with your budget, when considering a new furnace. There are many factors to be wary of when considering pricing that can influence the average price of a furnace in Winnipeg.

For example, it’s important to be aware of the BTU size. The BTU size is calculated by how much energy is required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree (Fahrenheit). Put simply, the larger your home, the larger your furnaces BTU size needs to be. So, when searching for a new furnace, stay armed with the square footage of your home, so you don’t pay for a furnace that doesn’t effectively heat your whole home! Be sure to consult a reputable local HVAC contractor who will help determine the correct unit for your home and needs.

Many people, naturally, look at the up-front cost of two units, see they are similar and opt for the cheaper version. Often, if many of the features are the same, it will be the aforementioned AFUE rating that is lower on the cheaper unit. However, the AFUE rating shows how many cents in every dollar will be going towards heating your home. So consider it carefully, as a higher AFUE rating will save you money in the long term.

Nothing but good hings to say about this HVAC contractor. They were punctual and did good work. I speak from experience being a former contractor myself. Their workmanship was very good and the installers were neat and tidy. We had a minor issue with the head office that we were able to resolve.
Overall I would highly recommend this company to anyone shopping for a reliable dependable HVAC contractor.

What to look for when choosing a heating & air conditioning contractor

People often fret over the brand of furnace to buy, but the contractor you choose is every bit as important. Not only is the quality of the workmanship and installation crucial to the furnace’s lifespan, the company you choose will be relied on for future servicing and warranty coverage.

Always choose an established company that has:

• Good, independently-verified feedback
• A solid track record and no outstanding disputes
• Verified insurance, licenses, and certifications
• Experienced staff, with manufacturer training
• Registered to offer rebates

Checking all of these things is difficult and time-consuming.

That’s why we’ve already done it for you!

Buying a New Furnace in Winnipeg

Insulation and Drafts

In addition to having a high-efficiency furnace, it’s important to make sure that your house is free from air leaks, as these can dramatically affect the performance of your new unit.

• Sealing drafts – If air is leaking into or out of your home, your furnace will be less effective. Make sure you check window seals, door seals and entrances to basements, attics and crawl spaces. One way of testing for air leaks is by using a stick of incense, and if there’s a leak, the incense will either be sucked out or blown back towards you indicating airflow. Finally, it’s beneficial to have a professional check your home for leaks and then fix any that are found.
• Insulate your attic – Tying in closely with sealing drafts, one of the most extreme cases of drafting is a badly insulated attic. A poorly insulated attic can dramatically cool down your home, causing you to spend more money on heating it. Consider a professional insulation install in your attic to ensure your house stays warm, and your furnace doesn’t have to work overtime!

3 Tips To Choosing The Right HVAC Company/Contractor

1. Check out their licensing and experience – Always check out a potential HVAC company’s license and consider their experience. Finding out how long they have held their license is a great way of gauging how experienced they are. Also, don’t be afraid to ask about an individuals licensing and experience. Remember, a furnace is an expensive investment so you want the right person installing it!
2. Ask for references and referrals – References and referrals are a useful way of checking out an HVAC company’s experience and quality. Most companies will have previous customers who are happy to be emailed or phoned and answer questions about their experience. Grab a couple of numbers or email addresses and fire some questions over to those that have had experience with the company before!
3. Price vs value – get an itemized quote – Like the furnace itself, cheapest is not always best. When down to the last few options for the HVAC company you want to use, make sure to ask for an itemized quote of all services that are included. If a price seems to good to be true, be wary of using their services. If most quotes come back in a similar range, consider other points such as their experience and references.
