Furnace Replacement Cost Calculator

Estimate installed US furnace replacement costs by capacity, fuel, efficiency, installation scope, and selected upgrades.

How this estimate is calculated

Fuel type supplies the installed furnace project allowance, while BTU capacity adds only a modest sizing component calibrated around an 80,000 BTU normal replacement. The full project cost is not multiplied by BTU. Efficiency adjusts the installed subtotal; installation changes and selected removal, permit, controls, ductwork, and utility work remain fixed allowances.

This is a planning estimate, not a contractor quote. Actual contractor quotes vary by location, specification, site conditions, labour, and project requirements.

Useful cost information

Planning assumptions

  • This estimates furnace replacement, not a complete heating-and-cooling system replacement.
  • Complete duct replacement is not included.
  • Capacity must be confirmed through an appropriate heating-load calculation.
