The steps
- Photos or a visit. Send photos of the furnace, the outdoor unit and their labels, or book an in-home estimate. We reply with a price.
- Choose the system. You pick a setup and equipment line from the quote. Any rebate paperwork that needs signing up front happens here.
- Equipment and permit. We order the equipment and pull the mechanical permit.
- Install. A ducted heat pump or dual fuel system usually takes one to two days. A single ductless head is often one day.
- Inspection. The city or county inspector checks the work after startup, and someone needs to be home for it.
- Rebates. Rebates paid after the install are filed once the job is invoiced.
What can slow it down
- Panel work that needs the utility to disconnect and reconnect service.
- Equipment that has to be ordered in.
- A furnace venting change that needs a new route.
- Inspection backlogs in busy months.
Heat while you wait
If your old furnace still runs, nothing changes until install day. If it has failed, tell us when you send photos and we'll plan the job around it.

Common questions
Can it be done before the next cold snap?
Tell us your deadline when you send photos. Equipment availability and the permit queue set the earliest date.
