Furnace Installation

On average, your furnace should be replaced every 15–20 years, if it’s been properly maintained. If not properly maintained, it may need to be replaced sooner.  

Of course, you want to replace it on your terms and timeline, not when it suddenly gives out at 3 am on Christmas morning — so, consider booking a 15-minute virtual Ask a Home Inspector appointment to determine the lifespan that’s left in your furnace. Our resident certified home inspector can offer tips and suggestions that’ll help make your new furnace installation seamless.

Because furnaces last a decade or longer, a new furnace offers many benefits that may not have been available when you last replaced it.  

Newer model furnaces are more energy efficient than older ones. That’s how installing a new furnace can save you money on your energy bills. Recently, energy costs have been rising, so it may be just the right time to consider a new furnace installation to save on future energy bills.  

A furnace that is the right size for your home will heat it more efficiently than an oversized or undersized one. A new furnace can also make your home more comfortable by providing consistent heat throughout your home.

The install time will vary from project to project. A typical installation is estimated to take about 6–8 hours, but additional furnaces and larger scopes of work will change this accordingly. The technician will review the time scale with you once they’ve scoped the project.

We just need you to make sure there's easy access to the furnace so our service techs can work safely and efficiently.

If possible, leave some space on your driveway for our van so our service techs can access all tools and devices they might need as some are directly built into the van.

The cost of the installation will include the furnace, and all necessary gas lines, wiring and ductwork. We’ll inspect and test the entire system once installed to make sure everything is running smoothly. After the installation is complete and checked, we’ll remove and dispose of your old furnace.

All work is covered by a warranty period, so if anything goes wrong with your new furnace system, we’ll help get it back on track.

Installing a new furnace is no DIY project. It's one of the few home upgrades that needs an experienced pro to get the job done safely and efficiently. That’s where we come in. A licensed technician is required to install a new furnace system. It’s important to have the right tools and expertise to do the job properly.

The electrical, duct, plumbing and gas components need the expertise and specialized tools of an HVAC professional to ensure a safe installation. Furnace installation is best not to be tackled on your own.  

That’s why it’s always best to call in the experts at Rümi for the installation and replacement of your furnace in Calgary, Edmonton and surrounding areas. We have the experience and know-how to get the job done quickly and efficiently.

While you can install a new furnace in any season, the best time is at the end of summer or the beginning of fall. Because most people use their heating and cooling systems more heavily in the summer and winter, milder weather is the perfect time to focus on replacing your furnace.  

When your furnace is on its last legs, you’re better off replacing it before it breaks down. This way your home stays heated without any disruptions to your family’s comfort.  

No, a new furnace does not affect air quality in your home — it will only regulate the temperature. To improve your home’s air quality, you can purchase an air purifier, or even go all the way and have a Whole Home Air Filtration system installed. We can install specialty filters and cleaning systems to help improve your whole home’s air quality

Your furnace system won’t come with a new humidifier, but now is the perfect time to upgrade your humidifier to work properly with your new furnace. When a new furnace is installed, we’ll redo all the ductwork, so your old humidifer will be reinstalled back into a new system, which is not optimal.
