The labor cost to install a furnace typically ranges from $1,500 to $3,000, depending on the complexity of the job, ductwork modifications, and system type.
No. Installing a furnace requires permits, inspections, and licensed HVAC expertise. DIY installation can void warranties, violate building codes, and create safety risks.
Lowe’s partners with local contractors. Prices usually range from $3,000 to $7,500, depending on the system, but quotes vary by location.
For a 2,000 sq ft home, a new furnace installation typically costs between $4,500 and $8,000, depending on efficiency, brand, and installation complexity.
Most furnace installations take 6–10 hours, though larger homes or ductwork modifications may extend the project to 1–2 days.
In most places, no, it’s illegal without an HVAC license and proper permits. A licensed contractor must handle installation to meet code.
Costco doesn’t sell furnaces directly. Instead, they connect members with local contractors for quotes on HVAC installation.
Gas furnaces with compatible ductwork are generally the simplest for professionals to install. Ductless mini-splits can also be straightforward but require HVAC expertise.
In 2025, new furnace installations average between $4,000 and $9,000, depending on size, efficiency rating, and brand.
Home Depot works with brands like Carrier, Rheem, Lennox, and Trane, but availability varies by region.
The best time is during the off-season, spring or early fall, when demand is lower and promotions are common.
Top-rated furnace brands include Trane, Lennox, Carrier, and Rheem, known for reliability and long lifespans.
Most furnaces last 15–20 years with proper maintenance. High-efficiency models may require replacement sooner due to advanced components.
Expect removal of your old unit, installation of the new furnace, ductwork adjustments if needed, thermostat connection, safety checks, and a full system test.
Replacing an existing furnace usually takes 1 day, unless major ductwork or electrical upgrades are needed.
Most installations require a 2–3 person crew to safely remove the old unit, position the new furnace, connect utilities, and test the system.
Gas furnaces are uncommon in Tampa but they exist -- in homes built before 1980 with existing gas service, in certain North Tampa neighborhoods, and in commercial properties that benefit from lower gas heating costs. Home Therapist installs gas furnace systems and electric heat strip packages throughout Tampa Bay. For most Tampa homeowners, we recommend Goodman or Daikin heat pump systems as the preferred alternative -- they heat and cool efficiently year-round in Florida's mild winters. FREE assessment on every call to recommend the right system for your home.
Tampa averages 11 nights per year below 40 degrees F and fewer than 5 nights below freezing. A gas furnace designed for 70,000-100,000 BTU output is grossly oversized for these conditions and will short-cycle constantly, degrading the heat exchanger faster and operating inefficiently. For the typical Tampa home, an electric heat strip package costing $800-1,800 installed, or a Goodman or Daikin heat pump that heats efficiently down to 35-40 degrees F, is the right solution. We recommend the system that makes sense for your actual heating needs -- not the most expensive option.
Gas furnace installation in a Tampa home requires an active Peoples Gas or TECO Peoples Gas natural gas line in the home, proper flue venting to the exterior, combustion air provision per Florida Building Code, and a gas permit from Hillsborough County. Homes built after 2000 generally do not have gas service installed -- adding a gas line just for a furnace is rarely cost-effective given the low heating demand. For homes that already have gas (fireplace, gas range, gas water heater), a gas furnace installation adds meaningful comfort during the 10-20 cold days per year when temperatures drop below 50 degrees F.
A Goodman or Daikin heat pump is a single system that both cools in summer and heats in winter by reversing the refrigerant cycle. In Tampa's mild winters, a heat pump produces 2-3 BTUs of heat for every BTU of electricity consumed -- dramatically more efficient than a heat strip (1 BTU per BTU) or a gas furnace. Heat pumps perform well down to 35-40 degrees F, which covers the vast majority of Tampa cold nights. For the very rare night below 35 degrees F, an integrated heat strip backup activates automatically. We install Goodman and Daikin heat pumps as our preferred brands.

Gas furnaces produce high heat output quickly -- ideal for climates with prolonged sub-freezing temperatures. In Tampa where even cold fronts rarely last more than 1-2 days, gas furnace capacity is excessive for the load. Heat pumps are the gold standard for Tampa -- they handle cooling in summer and heating in winter with the same equipment, achieve the highest efficiency in mild conditions, and qualify for federal IRA HEEHRA rebates under the Inflation Reduction Act. Electric heat strips are the simplest and lowest-cost heating option but are the least efficient -- they consume 1 kWh of electricity for each 3,413 BTU of heat, while a heat pump produces 9,000-12,000 BTU from the same kWh. We analyze your specific home, existing equipment, and heating history before recommending any option.
A cracked heat exchanger in a gas furnace allows combustion gases including carbon monoxide to mix with supply air and distribute through your home. Carbon monoxide is odorless, colorless, and potentially fatal. If your gas furnace is showing yellow or orange flame instead of blue, soot buildup around the burner or registers, or if you smell a faint sulfur or burning smell during operation, shut the furnace off and call us immediately. We inspect heat exchangers on every furnace service call at no extra charge.
