Description

When your furnace fails, you might be considering a replacement. Gas furnaces can last up to 30 years but typically last 15-20. They cost $3k-$8k, but if you have a gas line, installation is cheaper. Gas is usually cheaper than electricity for heating, but prices fluctuate. Both gas and electric heating have improved, and tax credits for efficient heat pumps expire in 2025. Gas furnaces have a larger environmental impact due to health risks and carbon emissions, while electric ones are more eco-friendly.
