Furnace Installation: The Fire & Ice Experience

Purchasing a new heating system is a big investment and we want to make sure you know everything involved in the installation process. In this video, we'll go over the entire process from the estimate, the installation and the quality inspection at the end.

I think the one thing that people can really know about Fire & Ice is that we believe in a simple philosophy of doing it right the first time or not doing it at all.

As the first impression of the company. When we're out there, we want to really make sure you truly understand all aspects of what you're getting from a professional standpoint. The knowledge, the thoroughness and the attention to detail that we as a company here at Fire & Ice provide each and every customer, every time.

So to me, furnace installation actually has a few different aspects to it. Okay? There's the initial front end where the residential sales professional will come out and do the full system evaluation and make sure that the sizing is correct for the system by completing what's called a load calculation.

On the day of install, our team will come in, remove the existing equipment, make any modifications necessary and then put in and reconnect all of the new equipment.

So, the third stage of install for us as a company is the follow up. Okay? When we are the main point of contact on the front end, we also come back on the back end to make sure that we're happy with the way the equipment was installed. That you're satisfied with the job that we did. And that we're also happy with the overall operation and functionality of the new system. One of the things that we do to make sure that your system is operating perfectly from the start is we do a full start up and commissioning report. There's 57 points on the commissioning form that we go through and make sure that from day one it's operating within manufacturer's specifications.

The average price range for a new furnace installation ranges from about $3000 up to about $7,600. The price range for the installation of a full system, which is the furnace and the air conditioner can range anywhere from $7,400 all the way up to $20,000. The sizing of the equipment and type of equipment is largely affected by the size of the home, the type of the home, albeit single story, two story, split level and the different comfort in which you specifically are looking for as a homeowner.

Here at Fire & Ice, we offer three different brands of equipment. We have train carrier and Mitsubishi Mini Split Systems the types of systems can range depending on the comfort level you're looking for, for your home. There's single stage to stage and then variable speed systems. For more information on the type of equipment that we offer, we have a ton of information on our learning center at indoortemp.com.

The biggest things that we do that add value to the installation process is making sure that the load calculation is done on the front end so that we have the accurate size equipment for your home then on the day of install, we do that full startup and commissioning report making sure that it is operating within manufacturer's specifications from the minute that it's installed.

And then we come back again about a week or two later to make sure that the system was installed properly, is working properly, and that you have overall customer satisfaction in our work.

If you're interested in a furnace installation, go to our products page, and check out some of the efficiency and rating information that we have provided there. If you're already ready to go, you can go to our contact page and schedule and estimate from there. Thanks for watching and we look forward to making your day a little better.

The team from Fire & Ice replaced our heating and air conditioning system in our nearly impossibly small furnace room (I feared they would have to remove our hot water tank and move the washer & dryer to get access to the furnace unit) and the outside was also a task because it required a crane to get the A/C unit on the roof of our condo. The team of pros from Fire & Ice were able to accomplish all of these unusual tasks and kept me fully informed on what was needed for them to get our units replaced. We highly recommend Fire & Ice.

Fire an Ice installed my furnace two years ago so I decided to use them to install my new a/c. Bryan did a great job reviewing all my options and working to get the financing that worked for me. He was also very patient with me and answered all my questions. Demetrius and Will did an amazing job! Considering all the work they did, they were done in four hours. I’m very pleased and would recommend Fire and Ice to anyone needing HVAC services

Scott Krouse

The sales experience with Luke was great. The installation team of Demetrius, Tyler and Hassan was fantastic. They were on time, were very thorough and did a great job. They take pride in their work and it shows with the final product. They were very respectful, cleaned up and it was a pleasure having them in our house. I highly recommend all these employees and this company. The company is fortunate to have them.

Brandon was the one who installed our new furnace. He was punctual and very professional. Our new furnace is working great and couldn’t be happier with how it looks. Bryan the sales rep was very informational without being pushy and helped us make the best decision for our house. I recommend anyone who needs a new Hvac unit to call fire and ice.

We had 2 AC systems relocated and replaced. Roger (our sales contact), spent most of the day with us calculating the load and measuring the house to ensure proper equipment sizing. Roger was very responsive in helping select a proper and sound location to install the new systems. He came out 3 times to answer questions and inspect the retaining wall/pad. On the day of install, Bryan, Nick and Luke were on time and very respectful of the home. They worked tirelessly the entire day (8am - 6pm) removing the old evaporator(s) and installing the new compressors. Everything was done neatly both inside and out. I would highly recommend their service to anyone considering a new system(s). We just followed up with a pair of new furnaces. Fast scheduling and efficient installation. Luke and Brandon protected the floor and cleaned up after the install.

I had a positive experience with Fire and Ice in the past and my AC installation was even better. Brandon and DQ were very professional. Not only was the install super clean with an impressive 4 fitting duct bend sealed tight, but I needed to work from home during the install and I barely heard them throughout the day. I’ll be recommending F&I to all my friends.
