The price of furnace installation can vary significantly based on several factors, which can affect both the overall cost and the long-term efficiency of the heating system. Here are some key aspects that can influence the price of furnace installation:
- How long has the company existed?
- Bunch of companies shut down within 2-3 years to hide taxes or do not want to take responsibility for fake promises about warranty.
- If the company is listed with TSSA, it has a different reputation.
- Is the company using employees or subcontractors??
- As subcontractors have no personal touch with the client, for them it’s just X amount of work. So huge chances of corner cuts, which lead to unexpected breakdowns.
- Is the company WSIB covered??
- Does the company have liability insurance?
- Is company on social media or any digital platform?
- Private contractors can easily hide their shelves by changing their phone numbers.
- The company has good genuine reviews on digital platforms. Because companies that are doing well on digital platforms won’t cheat you for maintaining reputation.
- Installation cost can vary if following manufacturer specifications and CODE.
- Better installation will extend the life of equipment and prevent damage.
- Parts warranty and labor warranty make a difference in cost too.
- Is the company staying behind the product they sell you?
- Only buying the same brand from other contractors doesn’t mean the same kind of service.
- As brand manufacturers (especially distributors) can do some favors to big buyers (HVAC companies),
- Headache of product registration.
