Frequently Asked Questions
What are typical furnace prices (equipment only) in North Carolina?
Typical range depends on BTU size, efficiency (single-stage, two-stage, variable), and brand. Installer labor is separate.
What BTU size do most homes in North Carolina use?
Many homes fall in a mid-range BTU band, but always size by a Manual J load calculation. Your installer should confirm before installation.
What AFUE rating should I target for North Carolina?
Colder states benefit from higher AFUE; warmer states can balance cost and efficiency. Check gas rates and comfort goals.
Is two-stage or variable-speed worth it?
Two-stage improves comfort and sound in most homes. Variable-speed adds finer control and humidity management—most valued in larger or multi‑story homes.
Can I reuse my existing venting when replacing a furnace?
It depends on the new furnace’s efficiency category. Many high‑efficiency models require PVC sidewall venting. Have your installer verify code and vent materials.
Do I need to match the furnace with my existing AC and coil?
Yes. Ensure the coil and blower are compatible with airflow requirements. If replacing AC soon, pick a furnace that supports the planned tonnage.
Are permits required for furnace replacement in North Carolina?
Most jurisdictions require a permit and inspection. Your installer typically pulls the permit and handles scheduling.
