  • 枫下家园 / 住房话题 / I need to change my furnace. I've got the gas bill (It's killing me) I heard in the Spring time is the best season. What is the price?
    • I changed my furnace last spring.Same reason, gas bill over $350-420 /month in winter time.My furnace is only 16 years old.
      still can use for 5-10 years, but it's low efficient, will burn more gas. so I decided to change to high efficient. Best time to buy is spring time from March to May while those company is not very busy.Normally they have promotion until May,30th.I bought the high efficient (92%) two stage. but not variable speed. ( that will cost more than $4100). My price is $3450 include tax.So far I think it's the best thing I did for the house.The bill is really going down.Hope this helps.
      • Thank you very much for your useful Info. I just move in this house. Still using electronic water heater. I plan to change furnace and water heater together this spring.
        Now I have NO IDEA how to begin this task. Could you please tell me WHERE you bought your furance? Is Enbridge the only company dealing with gas furance?
        • Enbridge is the most expensive one . there are hundreds (if not thousnds) of company that sell furnace and airconditioning company,in chinese 冷暖气公司
          you can look in yellow page for this.but be carfull don't deal with too small comapny, as that company will be responsible for your serice later on, just like enbridge now.too small comapny , may not have good service, eg, furnace break down in the middle of winter night ..
          to start with, first find the right brand you like( lennox.carrier,kenmore,armstrong.... ) , some are more expensive than others.
          Then find the dealer who sell those brand. normally one dealer only sell one or two brand.
          second , after deciding the brand check their website to find out which mode ( or ask sales people)
          third, call them to find out price.

          I am not too sure about switching from electric to gas, it may cost extra money.

          My experince, chinese dealer generally cheaper, but not too good at service. I find out the price from chinses dealer and force canadian dealer to match price.

          I choose lennox, by the way. Good luck!
          • Thank you so much. I gonna find some big dealer first. Hope I can change it within 2 months.
