The Big Question

Repair, Maintain, or Replace?

Not every broken furnace needs to be replaced, and not every old AC is worth fixing. Here's how to look at it.

Repair It

When it makes sense to fix what you have.

  • System is under 10 years old
  • The repair is limited and the rest of the system is in good condition
  • You plan to move in the next 2 years
  • Energy bills have been stable

Maintain It

When to hold the line with a tune-up.

  • System is 5-15 years old and running okay
  • You want to avoid surprise mid-season breakdowns
  • You want documented routine care and fewer mid-season surprises
  • Looking to stretch its lifespan a few more years

Replace It

When a new system is the smarter money.

  • System is 15+ years old and needs a major repair
  • A major repair is difficult to justify against the system's age and condition
  • Energy bills are steadily climbing each year
  • Rooms are heating or cooling unevenly despite repairs
The Numbers

Broad price ranges for Southeast Michigan

Most homeowners pay somewhere inside these ranges - installed, permitted, and hauled away, not equipment-only teaser prices.

Furnace replacement

$4,500 - $10,000

Use the full range for early planning; the home and installation determine where a written quote lands.

  • Efficiency and staging choices influence the written quote
  • Home layout and installation conditions affect final sizing
  • Venting or ductwork updates can add to the total

Financing options are available. Subject to credit approval. Ask for details.

Furnace installation

Central A/C replacement

$3,500 - $8,000

Use the full range for early planning; capacity and installation conditions determine the written quote.

  • Capacity and efficiency choices influence the written quote
  • Home layout and installation conditions affect final sizing
  • Line set, pad, and electrical condition affect the price

Financing options are available. Subject to credit approval. Ask for details.

AC installation

Furnace + A/C together

$8,000 - $15,000

Use the full range for early planning; matched equipment and site conditions determine the written quote.

  • Doing both at once usually costs less than two separate installs
  • One coordinated installation with matched equipment
  • Ask about our current specials on combined systems

Straight Answers

Planning questions homeowners actually ask

Why a range instead of an exact price?

Because an honest exact price requires seeing your home - the size, the ductwork, the venting, what you want out of the system. Anyone who quotes a firm number sight-unseen is guessing. We give you a fixed, itemized quote in person, free, before any work begins.

Is the quote really free? What's the catch?

It's free, there's no catch, and there's no obligation. We measure, we listen to what you want, and you get a clear written price. If you want to think it over for six months, that's fine - that's what this guide is for.

When is the cheapest time to replace a system?

Shoulder seasons - spring and fall - when crews aren't slammed with emergencies. Replacing on your schedule is almost always cheaper and less stressful than replacing during the first cold snap when the old furnace finally quits.

Do these prices include rebates?

No. The ranges above are before potential rebates or incentives. Program administrators decide eligibility and award amounts, so use the official program links to confirm current requirements before making a purchase decision.

Just Researching?

Smart. Take your time.

Most people research a system for weeks before calling anyone. Keep this page bookmarked - and let us nudge you twice a year when it's tune-up season, so the old system lasts as long as possible.

Want a reminder when it's tune-up season?

We'll email you exactly twice a year - spring for your A/C, fall for your furnace - with the current tune-up offer. No newsletter, no spam, one-click unsubscribe in every email.
