What to Expect When You Get a Furnace Installed

September 29, 2017

So, you’re buying a new furnace. It may be a large investment, but an efficient, well-running furnace is vital to your comfort. A furnace installation is a big job, and you can expect it to take a few hours. To help make it go as quickly and smoothly as possible, there are several things you can do to prepare. That way, you’ll be returning to cozy comfort in no time.

It’s very common for a furnace room to double as a place for additional storage. So, if there’s anything near your furnace or in its path, transfer it a safe distance away for the installation. Remember that the Wolfe & Sons Heating and Cooling technicians will need sufficient room around the furnace to move around as they work. Clearing the area will allow them space and will help guard your belongings from being damaged. You can be sure that our technicians will take extra care to keep your house clean and your belongings undamaged. It’s also a good idea to move any furniture situated in the path to the furnace room.

You should be aware that you may need a new thermostat, depending on the model of your older furnace. Plus, now is the ideal time to upgrade to a smart thermostat to take full advantage of all the benefits of a new furnace. A smart thermostat can help guarantee peak comfort and keep your indoor space at your desired temperatures 24/7. If you need or would like a new thermostat installed during your furnace installation, you may also want to find touchup paint if it’s a different size or shape from your previous thermostat to clean up your wall.
