    Areas Of Expertise: Insulation

    "We had the batts insulation installed in 2021. As well as the eco friendly radiant barrier which was suggested after researching we went with it. Wonderful recommendation from Attic Pros. Helps keep our home cooler in hot w weather as well as warmer in cold. The service comes with a warranty for Rat proofing. Recently we heard some potential rat noises from the attic. I called Attic Pros and was set up with an appointment for a technician to come and re check the work an seal off any potential areas of entry. They must have sent their best technician not only was he completely thorough as far as inspecting previous work and repairing anything that needed. He was very informative and courteous. We feel fortunate to have had Said sent to our home to do the work. As of now I couldnâ t me more pleased. If ever we need a service from attic pros. We will definitely request Said"

    "We have an older furnace and the technician carefully checked that it was safe by examining the furnace interior with both video and CO analysis tools. Our furnace needed a new motor, which was ordered and installed, but the technician was careful to ensure that it was operating correctly. It was not, and he took the time to determine why the motor was operating incorrectly. He was able to fix it and our furnace was restored to good operating condition. We were very appreciative that Lunar was able to send the technician quickly whereas other larger companies would not send anyone for one or two weeks. That is too long to wait for a broken furnace during winter. Lunar came through and fixed our furnace!"

    "I highly recommend the company, Reyes Heating & Air for servicing your furnace. Udiel returned my telephone call promptly and scheduled an appointment that accommodated my work schedule. The price he quoted for the total service of my heater was considerably less, when compared to other Marin heating companies. Udiel explained what tasks he did during a service call. Through a camera, he showed me areas of wear on my 25 year old, forced air heater that will need to be replaced sometime in the future. If you are looking for a friendly, trustworthy, professional heating and air company, please give a Reyes Heating & Air a call. I am very pleased with their service."

    "After being told by other companies that I needed to replace my 80-year-old gravity furnace (to the tune of $20, 000 I did not have), I finally called Empire. I know that old machines are simple with few parts and no electronics, so I quickly learned that few people know how to REPAIR not just install. They do both. Pavel has studied heating repair for over 2 years in addition to his practical experience. He came to SF within 24 hours and even returned without grumbling when I got stuck in a dog emergency. He was polite, efficient, was able to diagnose and already had all the parts to do the fix immediately. Heat pronto! He put everything back in place and charged a fair price. When I am ready to replace my furnace and water heater, based on attitude and workmanship, I will definitely use them. I had done homework on new furnaces, and the Bryant brand heater (same owner as Carrier) they install are among the highest rated; well beyond the Lennox partnered with Costco. As a senior, a woman of color and homeowner, I have been burned many times. If I realized Empire was around I could have been securely toasty months ago. Thank you, Pavel."

    "My HVAC unit was 20 years old needed consistent repair, and my ducks where leaking. It was time for a new unit. I also wanted to relocate the condenser to improve my back yard space. I had gotten 4 quotes before someone referred me to http://www.aircmechanical.com/ Vitor was literally the first smart person to offer a quote. He suggested relocating the condenser to a side of the house and changing it to a suitcase type unit. He also came up with the creative solution of adding a 2nt inlet in another part of the house to reduce noise and improve airflow. The other contractors wanted to enlarge and or relocate the existing inlet which would have been an ugly mess. I now have an extremely efficient 2 stage unit installed correctly and he beat the other quotes. Entire product was completed in 2 days. I couldnâ t be happier."

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a furnace?

+

A furnace generates and distributes heated air throughout your home. A vital part of the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system—though it does not cool air—you activate a furnace when you set or adjust the temperature in a room using the thermostat. Furnaces can run off natural gas, oil, electric, or propane.

How long does a furnace last?

+

The average gas furnace lasts 15 to 20 years, though some electric furnaces can last 30 years or more.

  • Gas furnace: 15–20 years
  • Electric furnace: 20–30 years
  • Oil furnace: 15–20 years

In addition to furnace type, your unit’s lifespan also depends on its size and the heating system you have—two-stage furnaces are more efficient and less likely to break than single-stage furnaces.

Having a reputable HVAC technician perform annual furnace maintenance and inspections can help ensure you get the most out of your unit. And, as always, change your filters regularly—a dirty filter can block airflow and overwork the motor.

How often should you change your furnace filter?

+

You should change your furnace filter every one to three months to help maintain air quality, keep energy costs in check, and extend your unit’s lifespan. If people in your home have dust or pet dander allergies, you may consider changing your filters more regularly. Looking for an even simpler guideline? If the filter is dirty, replace it.

How much does a new furnace cost?

+

The average cost of a furnace unit is $2,300 to $7,200, plus $150 to $500 per hour for installation. Furnace replacement prices depend on the type of furnace you need, its size, and local labor costs.

  • Gas: $3,800–$10,000
  • Electric: $2,000–$7,000
  • Oil: $6,750–$10,000
  • Mini-Split: $2,000–$15,000
  • Geothermal: $4,000–$17,000

If your furnace installation requires new gas lines or additional ductwork, add $250 to $800 for the gas lines and $3,00 to $5000 on average for the ductwork to your overall project costs.
