      Furnace Installation

      The Right Furnace Installation Makes All the Difference

      Deciding to replace your furnace is a big deal. It’s a major investment in your home’s comfort and safety, and you want to be absolutely sure you’re making the right choice, not just in the furnace itself, but in the team you trust to install it. An improper installation can lead to years of high energy bills, uneven heating, and frustrating breakdowns.

      At Chambers Services, we believe in doing things right from the very beginning. A great furnace installation isn’t just about hooking up a new unit; it’s about providing a seamless experience for our neighbors in Peoria, Bloomington-Normal, and beyond, ensuring you get a reliable heating system that will keep your family warm for years to come. We’re here to guide you through the process, answer your questions, and make sure you get the perfect heating solution for your home.

      Our Detailed Furnace Installation Process

      We want you to feel confident and informed every step of the way. Here’s what you can expect when you choose Chambers Services for your new furnace installation, from the first call to the final walkthrough.

      1. The In-Home Consultation: It all starts with a simple goal: understanding exactly what you need. One of our experienced technicians will visit your home to assess your current heating system, inspect your ductwork, and understand your family’s unique comfort needs and budget.
      2. Proper Sizing (It’s a Science!): This is the most critical step. We perform a professional “load calculation” to determine the exact size and capacity furnace your home needs. A furnace that’s too big or too small will waste energy and wear out prematurely. We make sure it’s sized just right.
      3. System Selection & A Clear Quote: Based on the sizing and our discussion, we’ll recommend the best furnace options for you, explaining the benefits of different models and efficiency ratings (AFUE). You’ll receive a free, no-pressure estimate that clearly details the furnace replacement cost.
      4. The Installation Day: Our professional furnace installers treat your home with respect. We lay down protective coverings and work cleanly and efficiently. We will safely disconnect and remove your old furnace for proper disposal.
      5. Expert Installation & Connection: We expertly place your new furnace and connect it to your existing ductwork, gas lines, and electrical systems, ensuring every connection is secure and up to code.
      6. Final Checks & Homeowner Education: Before we leave, we test the entire system thoroughly. We check the thermostat, test safety controls, and ensure everything is running at peak performance. We’ll then walk you through your new system, show you how to operate it, and answer any final questions you have.

      Benefits of a New High-Efficiency Furnace

      Upgrading your old furnace isn’t just about replacing a broken appliance. A new, high-efficiency furnace installation offers significant advantages for your home and your wallet.

      • Lower Monthly Energy Bills: This is the biggest win for most homeowners. Modern high-efficiency furnaces can be up to 98% efficient, meaning only 2 cents of every dollar you spend on heating is lost. This can translate into major savings on your utility bills every winter.
      • More Consistent, Comfortable Heat: Say goodbye to cold spots and drafts. New furnaces provide much more even and consistent heating throughout your entire home, creating a more comfortable living environment.
      • Improved Indoor Air Quality: Modern furnace systems have advanced filtration and humidity control options that can significantly reduce dust, allergens, and other airborne irritants, helping your family breathe easier.
      • Peace of Mind and Reliability: There’s nothing better than the peace of mind that comes with a brand-new, reliable heating system. No more worrying if your old furnace will make it through the next cold snap. Plus, new units come with excellent manufacturer warranties for long-term protection.

      “Chambers installed our new furnace in Jan. 2023. We knew we needed it the day before and they were out first thing in the morning the next day. The price was right on a high end product, and Rob and Thom’s service was second to none. We’ll be continuing to call on Chambers for all our HVAC needs.”

      Frequently Asked Questions About Furnace Installation

      How long does a typical furnace installation take?

      Most standard furnace replacements can be completed in a single day, usually within 4 to 8 hours. The exact time can vary depending on the complexity of the job, such as whether ductwork modifications are needed.

      What is an AFUE rating?

      AFUE stands for Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency. It’s a percentage that tells you how much fuel your furnace converts into usable heat. For example, a 95% AFUE furnace converts 95% of its fuel to heat, with only 5% being lost. The higher the AFUE rating, the more energy-efficient the furnace.

      What brands of furnaces do you install?

      We install all varieties of high-quality, reliable furnace brands to fit different needs and budgets. We can help you select the best option for your home during our free in-home consultation.

      Is a bigger furnace better?

      No, not at all! This is a common misconception. A furnace that is too large for your home will “short cycle,” turning on and off constantly. This wastes a tremendous amount of energy, causes excessive wear and tear on components, and fails to provide consistent heat. Proper sizing through a professional load calculation is essential.
