Replacing Natural Gas Forced Air Furnace in New York

Jan 25, 2007 3 Replies

I need to replace my natural gas forced air central furnace. I live in Scarsdale, NY. My furnace is 20 years old. The contractor we are speaking to wants to install one of the two furnaces below for a total charge of $3,300 [including labor and 1 year service contract]. I don't trust this contractor because he originally quoted us a price of $5,300 and reduced it to $3,300 when he heard a competitor would do the job for $3,500.

I also want to replace my air conditioning unit. The same man quoted me a price of $4,900 for parts, labor and 1 year service.



Then why are you here? OH, I see. You love his lower price now that it is the lowest even though he was going to shaft you up the ass. Go for it tightwad. Bubba

So, if you don't trust the fellow, then call a couple other companies for quote.

I think it's best to do the furnace and AC at the same time. Saves a lot of work. I did a quick look, you're near to NYC, so prices expect to be a bit higher, there. Saved two grand by shopping around. That's something.
