These guys are great. I asked several companies to come in and take a look at our system. Akshar immediately pointed out that the system had originally been built incorrectly and told me how they were going to fix it. They got it done quickly, efficiently, and without leaving any kind of a mess behind. Behind. When I had a couple of issues when I first started using it, they were right on it. A pleasure to work with people who know what they're doing.

Over all, my experience was very positive. Mayur provided a clear scope of work & equipment at a fair price to replace our HVAC (gas furnace and AC). In fact, they were able to coordinate with JCP&L and finance the project for 0% for 7 years. You can't beat that!The installation went OK. I had a few questions that I shared with Stephanie. She seems to manage the office. SHE IS A ROCK STAR. Very responsive. Arranged follow up work to accommodate my schedule, etc.Back to my questions:1. I wanted to ensure my AprilAire humidified could be controlled by my Ecobee smart thermostat and I would not have to use a separate AprilAire controller. Mayur came back quickly and rewired the Ecobee. It is July, so I won't be able to test it until the weather gets cold, but I have every reason to believe it will be fine.2. The furnace manufacturer spec call for vent pipe supports every 4 feet. The guys that installed the unit put them too far apart. I let Stephanie know, and she got them back to the house ASAP to add more supports.3. The ports out side of the house were too close to the ground according to the inspector. Stephanie arranged to have the guys stop by the house and address. The inspector approved the modification.So, yes, there were a few issues that needed to be addressed. Stuff happens. What matters is how a contractor responds. The Akshar team was very responsive. Again, a special "thanks" to Stephanie.Nov 22 update: I recently had my the first chance to use the heating and humidifier on our new HVAC. Problem: It was turning off after running for 10 minutes. The Akshar team came out the next day and corrected a wiring issue between the smart thermostat (Ecobee) and the furnace. However, the system was still turning off. After a few more visits, they determined that there was a faulty sensor in the HVAC unit. The faulty sensor was a manufacturer issue: NOT Akshar. They replaced it (NC) and now they system is working like a champ! I can even control the humidifier from the smart thermostat.Things happen. The proof is how well the contractor stands behind their work and products they provide. Akshar gets a big "thumbs up" for both from me.

Absolutely rubbish behaviour and service by this people. Complete unprofessional bunch. Can't recommend at all. BEWARE. Only hire them if you want to be yelled at in your own home and called a Liar REPEATEDLY because of miscommunication between their phone rep and technician. Either that or because they want to charge more despite being issue within just 3-4 months of installation. Details review to come later once my injury heals but highly recommend to stay away from this low offer unprofessionals.

Akshar has been a great company to work with. They just completed a job that involved installing a new furnace with improved filtration plenum, a new efficient water heater, and installation of new ductwork. They are very communicative with phone calls and email reminders. The only issue we had was that we needed a vent installed for our over-the-range microwave and this is not something they normally do. They still did it and it works well, just note that this is not a normal ask for them.I would not hesitate to hire Akshar again for any HVAC needs.

After shopping around with 5 HVAC companies, Akshar gave us the best estimate. The owner of the company came to do the initial assessment and there was no pressure sales talk at all. Akshar presented us with reasonable pricing and were very patient in providing us with multiple estimates of different models to fit our needs. The office staff was professional, friendly and prompt in responding. The entire crew was also professional and worked on the job in a very timely and efficient manner.Akshar gave us the Best estimate with the Better Equipment compared to all the rest.

We had used Akshar HVAC to replace our 20 year old heating and air conditioner. They were the most reasonably priced and very willing to work with us on multiple options to get us the specific model/combinations we wanted. Mayur was extremely knowledgeable, patient and really took time to understand our specific need, provide with an estimate which was significantly better than the nearest competitor estimate. The work was executed with precision in timeframe promised. And all paper work with township, PSEG (rebate) and warranty was handled by them smoothly. No surprises at all!I would highly recommend Akshar HVAC and Mayur for any HVAC needs for high quality work at a very reasonable price.

How Much Does Furnace Installation Cost in 2025?

Posted On: July 16, 2025
Posted By: admin

In 2025, furnace installation isn’t merely considered a replacement for an old heating system but is also positioned as an alternative for energy efficiency, long-term cost reductions, and conforming to updated industry standards. Rising fuel costs and being under newer regulations have pressed the issue of understanding a furnace installation cost into the front row of consumers’ minds as they consider making a smart, forward-thinking choice.

Generally, furnace installation costs $3,500 to $8,500 in 2025, depending on factors such as the furnace type, energy efficiency rating, and area of your house. High-efficiency models come with high upfront costs but present savings as they consume less energy.

What Affects Furnace Installation Cost?

Many variables affect furnace installation total costing. These include gas, electric, oil, or propane type selections, the efficiency or AFUE rating, the home’s square footage, ductwork conditions, and the local labor rate. The price will depend on any/all of these items.

High-efficiency furnaces that are rated 95% AFUE and above usually cost more than standard furnaces and use less fuel. So the installation of a furnace is more expensive with immediate effect, but the less-consuming energy with energy bill and rebate schemes will start giving you benefits in 2025.

Types of Furnaces and Their Costs

The installation of a furnace is actually a huge deciding factor in the cost. The most common of gas furnaces usually run a price of $4,500 to $7,000. Electric furnaces generally are of less price, at around $3,500, with most operational costs depending on how much electricity costs in the area.

Under certain conditions, oil and propane furnaces with higher operational costs and installation costs between $5,000 and $8,500 due to fuel storage requirements and added maintenance are used and considered somewhat rarer installations.

Why Furnace Efficiency Matters in 2025

Furnace efficiency is more important than ever in the year 2025. Units with higher AFUE (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) ratings convert more fuel into heat, thereby reducing waste and keeping energy costs low. An efficient system means efficient performance and savings over time.

High-efficiency furnaces, while expensive, may qualify for rebates and tax credits to help offset those costs. Energy savings over a long heating season can work profoundly in favor of any high-efficiency furnace.

Additional Costs to Consider

Installation-related expenses can add to your total price. These might include anything from removing an old unit to registering an updated duct system, installing new thermostats, or even installing upgraded gas lines. All of these can set off your final bill.

Permit and inspection fees also come into play depending on the building codes of your municipality. These extra costs on average run from $200-$600, so it’s best to have them included in your furnace installation budget.

How to Save on Furnace Installation in 2025

Scheduling your furnace installation during the less busy period, i.e., in spring or fall, may save you some bucks. It is quite common for contractors to offer discounts in these periods.

Conclusion

A furnace installation in 2025 is considered a wise investment to consider comfort, energy efficiency, and saving money on a long-term horizon. While the upfront costs can range from $3,500 to $8,500, the initial expense does not compare to the benefits of a modern, efficient heating system.
