So, you’re getting a new furnace. It may be a big 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 several hours. To help make it go as quickly and easily as possible, there are a few things you can do to prepare. That way, you’ll be returning to cozy comfort in no time.
It’s typical for a furnace room to act as storage space. So, if there are items near your furnace or in its path, transfer it a safe distance away for the installation. Remember that the Evenaire Heating & Air Conditioning technicians will need lots of room around the furnace to move around as they work. Clearing the area will give 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 home clean and your belongings undamaged. It’s also a good idea to move any furniture that’s in the path to the furnace room.
You should be aware that you might need a new thermostat, depending on the model of your previous furnace. Plus, now is a great time to upgrade to a smart thermostat to take full advantage of all the benefits of a new furnace. A smart thermostat can help maintain peak comfort and keep your house at your desired temperatures 24/7. If you need or want a new thermostat installed during your furnace installation, you may also want to get some touchup paint if it’s a different size or shape from your previous thermostat to clean up your wall.
