How It Works
Our Furnace Installation Process
Installing a furnace is a multi-stage process involving heating load calculation, equipment selection, gas line work, venting verification, and safety testing. Here’s what you can expect when you work with TAP Heating and Cooling.
-
Heating Load Calculation & Sizing
We measure square footage, evaluate insulation, check basement exposure, assess window area, review air sealing, and factor in local winter temperatures. Using industry load-calculation software, we determine the BTU output you need. An undersized furnace won’t keep you warm on peak-cold days; an oversized furnace cycles inefficiently. We get the math right.
-
Equipment Selection & Efficiency Comparison
We present furnace options at different price points and efficiency levels — from 80–85% AFUE single-stage units to 96%+ AFUE premium modulating furnaces. We show you the upfront cost, estimate annual heating costs, and calculate the payback period of higher efficiency. You choose the system that matches your budget and comfort goals.
-
Gas Line Assessment & Venting Plan
We evaluate your existing gas line capacity and venting system. If you’re upgrading to a larger capacity, we may need to upsize the gas line. We explain whether existing venting can be reused or if new venting is recommended. All gas work follows local code and includes pressure testing and leak verification.
-
Financing & Installation Scheduling
Once you’ve selected your furnace, we present financing options through our Service Finance partner so you can spread the cost while your energy savings begin immediately. We schedule installation at a time that works for you — typically within 1–3 weeks, with most installations taking 1–2 days.
-
Site Preparation & Gas Line Routing
Before installation day, we prepare your furnace location and route gas lines if needed. Gas line work is done carefully, with all connections tested for leaks. Venting is routed through existing paths where possible to minimize disruption. We coordinate any permits or inspections required by local authorities.
-
Installation Day — Equipment Placement & Connections
Our crew positions the new furnace on a level surface, connects and pressure-tests the gas line, sets up exhaust venting and fresh air intake, integrates ductwork with sealed connections, installs and programs the thermostat, and completes all electrical work to code with proper breakers and grounding. Safety is paramount.
-
Combustion Safety Testing & Performance Verification
We perform combustion air supply verification, carbon monoxide testing, flue gas analysis, electrical safety inspection, and a full heating cycle test — measuring performance against manufacturer specifications. Once all tests pass, we provide the system manual, warranty documents, and explain routine maintenance.
Installation Day Details
What Happens During Your Installation
Furnace Unit Placement
The new furnace is positioned in your furnace room or basement on a level, stable surface. Proper placement allows for maintenance access and safe operation, with clearance maintained for air intake and service.
Schedule InstallationGas Line Connection
The gas supply line is connected to the furnace burner. All connections use appropriate fittings and are pressure-tested for safety. We verify correct gas pressure to the burner using calibrated gauges.
Schedule InstallationVenting & Intake Setup
Furnace exhaust venting is connected to safely remove combustion byproducts outdoors, and fresh air intake is verified or installed. Proper venting is critical for safety — we get this right every time.
Schedule InstallationDuctwork Integration
The furnace’s air output duct is connected to your home’s existing ductwork distribution system. Duct sealing with mastic or foil tape minimizes leakage and improves efficiency.
Schedule InstallationThermostat Installation & Programming
A new thermostat is installed if needed and programmed with your heating preferences. Programmable and smart thermostat options let you adjust temperature by time of day or remotely. We explain features and answer questions.
