Common questions about costs and estimates for this service.
The $5,000 rule is a guideline to help homeowners decide whether to repair or replace their HVAC system. You multiply the age of your unit by the cost of the needed repair. If that number exceeds $5,000, replacing your HVAC system is often more cost-effective.
An HVAC system for a 2000 sq ft house can cost around $13,430 for the system only (AC + Furnace/Heat Pump). If ductwork is included, the cost typically ranges from $15,500 to $17,400.
The national average cost for replacing a gas furnace in the U.S. for a 1,600 to 2,000-square-foot home is about $7,000. Overall, a new furnace can cost between $3,800 and $10,000 depending on size, type, and efficiency.
Key factors include the type of heating system (e.g., furnace, boiler, heat pump), the size of the home, whether new ductwork is required, the efficiency ratings and features of the chosen unit, and regional labor and material costs.
While the overall range can vary, installing a heat pump for a 1,500 to 2,500 square foot home can cost between $17,000 and $23,000.
