Furnace installation
When it’s time to replace an old furnace—or you’re building a new space—Embers Heating and Cooling delivers safe, efficient, and code-compliant furnace installation in Suffolk and the greater Hampton Roads area. Our certified technicians size your system correctly, install it to manufacturer specifications, and verify that every component operates at peak performance so you get reliable heat, lower utility bills, and peace of mind all winter long.
Right-sized systems, not guesswork. A furnace that’s too large short-cycles and wastes energy; one that’s too small struggles on the coldest days. We start with a proper load calculation that considers your home’s square footage, insulation levels, windows, ductwork, and lifestyle. From there, we recommend trusted equipment options—single-stage, two-stage, or variable-speed—based on comfort preferences and budget.
A clean, safe, and thorough install. On installation day, our crew protects your home, removes and disposes of the old equipment, and inspects the existing platform, venting, and gas or electrical service. We set the new furnace, connect sealed supply/return transitions, and ensure condensate and combustion air are correctly routed. For gas furnaces, we pressure-test the gas line, set and verify manifold gas pressure, and perform a full combustion analysis. We also clean or replace the filter, confirm airflow, and check capacitor values and electrical connections so your system starts off right.
Ductwork and airflow matter. Even the best furnace can’t perform if airflow is restricted. We evaluate static pressure, inspect visible ductwork for leaks or crushed runs, and make recommendations to improve comfort in rooms that run cooler than others. Small adjustments—sealing, balancing, or replacing undersized sections—can make a big difference in efficiency and noise.
Quality control you can see. Before we leave, we run your new furnace through a complete heat cycle and document key readings: temperature rise, amperage of blower motors, and safety switch operation. You’ll receive a walkthrough of the thermostat, filter access, and maintenance tips, plus warranty registration so your coverage is locked in.
Energy efficiency and options. Today’s high-efficiency furnaces (including two-stage and variable-speed models) deliver quieter operation, steadier temperatures, and lower energy use. If your home has a heat pump, ask about dual-fuel setups that automatically choose the most efficient heat source based on outdoor temperatures.
Honest pricing and clear timelines. You’ll get a straightforward proposal with model numbers, labor details, and any recommended duct or venting upgrades. We keep communication clear from scheduling to final inspection so there are no surprises.
Protect your investment. Pair your new furnace with our maintenance plan to keep warranties valid and performance high. Seasonal checks include cleaning the flame sensor, verifying gas pressure, tightening electrical connections, and confirming safe operation before peak heating months.
