First my sewer, now my furnace (Anyone know a furnace guy that has reasonable rates & quality work)

[USMC88-93]

Looks like furnace is toast and I will be scheduling a service call in the morning with someone, anyone have recommendations for both quality of work an price?

What does a full blown furnace replacement run these days. (Ill likely have to borrow off my IRA/401k to fund replacement.

I just had mine replaced by Brothers (forgot mr trash did that sort of work). Ran me about $4,200 for a 2 stage 80,000 BTU furnace. My friend works there so I got 10% off. It was closer to $4700 without that.

How old is the unit?

Is he self employed or who does he work for?

Is that middle of the road, high end, or cheapest you could get? The size and BTU of my requirements is lost on me at the moment until I get someone to look at it. I will need to be scheduling a repair appointment in the morning.

How old is the unit?

20+ years

Hghclsswhitetrsh is self employed. I'd give you contact info but I'm not at home. He should be listed in the industry partner section.

I was given two options and they were within $150 of each other. Basically single stage vs two stage. They did the sizing as well. I had no idea what I would need but my house is roughly 1700 square feet. I have no idea on the quality of the unit. It's a Gooodman branded furnace. It was 36 degrees in my house at one point during this so I didn't really care either lol. The furnace itself appears to be about $1000 online. So about 3/4ths of that is labor.

I was about to head to Vegas for Christmas when mine died. So I financed it. I won't pay interest if I pay it off in a year but that makes for a pretty hefty monthly payment. Luckily Vegas didn't steal all of my money and I have most of it taken care of already.

Hghclsswhitetrsh takes care of the Denver metro area. He'll be able to get you taken care of.

I take care of the people up north. I'll travel to Longmont for service work and about Thornton for install work if I'm not crazy busy.

I usually save people usually around a $1-2K on installs over the big companies. The other day I beat One Hour Heating and Air by about $10,000 on a heat pump system installed. according to the home owner. I don't know how some of these guys sleep at night.

I have a couple of friends in the HVAC business. PM me if you'd like contact information.
