You Work With a Tradesperson
The person helping you choose your furnace understands HVAC. They know how the equipment works, what it takes to install it correctly, what creates comfort problems, what tends to fail and what makes a furnace easier to service years from now. We’ll tell you where we think spending more gets you something worthwhile, where it doesn’t, and what we would do if it were our house. Then you decide.
We Keep the Choices Simple
You don’t need seven furnaces and a stack of brochures spread across the kitchen table. Most homeowners want the same basic things: a comfortable house, reliable equipment, sensible efficiency, a fair price and something that can be serviced when it eventually needs attention. Our Signature Series is built around those priorities. We’ll give you a few meaningful choices, explain what changes between them and let you decide what is worth paying for.
You Control the Investment
The house determines some parts of the project. The new furnace still has to be installed safely, vented correctly and properly connected to the ductwork, gas, electrical and drainage systems around it. Beyond that, the choices belong to you. Comfort, efficiency, controls, filtration, humidification and how far you want to go with the system all affect the final investment. Our job is to understand your needs, wants and budget, then design the options around them.
Fixed for Free for 10 Years
Imagine replacing your furnace today and, outside of the maintenance you should be doing anyway, not worrying about another covered furnace repair bill for ten years. That is the ownership experience behind our Signature Series. Every furnace we install includes the manufacturer’s warranty, including 10-year parts coverage on our current furnace line. Keep Club Austin active and Austin covers furnace repairs 100% for the full ten years under the program terms. Buy the furnace, maintain it like you should, stay comfortable and let us stand behind the rest.
We Intend to Be Here Later
Austin has been serving Southeastern Wisconsin since 1939. We remain privately owned and are deliberately building the company for perpetuity. Austin is owned and run by Eric Smith, our President and a third-generation master tradesman, so the standards behind the work are still being set by someone who comes from the trades. That matters when you’re buying equipment you expect to live with for a long time. We don’t just want to install your furnace. We intend to be the company servicing it years from now.
Installed the Austin Way
Passing inspection is only the starting point. We have written Austin Way installation standards covering the details that affect safety, comfort, durability and how easy your furnace will be to service later: venting, gas piping, wiring, drainage, ductwork connections and clearances. We also handle the parts of the job you will notice right away. We show up prepared, wear shoe covers, protect the work area and clean up when we’re done. Before we leave, you’ll understand what we installed and how to take care of it.

What Homeowners Say About Their Furnace Replacement
Jen Stell
“Colton J installed my new furnace and a/c over the last two days and I cannot speak highly enough about his professionalism and the quality of his work. He took great care to protect my floors, clean-up when the job was done, and explain the work that was being performed. He, like all other technicians I have encountered from Austin, is truly skilled at his trade!”
Ken Smith
“Todd and the team at Austin continue to deliver a great experience. We were without heat in the middle of a blizzard and they were able to get out quickly and install a new furnace next day.”
Jon Mayer
“Troy did an outstanding job replacing our furnace. He customized the install to provide us with the absolute best results. Troy explained everything we needed to know about our new furnace. What a great personality, truly caring about the job he did. All of Austin Plumbing did an excellent job to accommodate our needs. Thank you Troy and Austin! I wouldn’t use any other company!”
Diane Andres
“I want to say Thank you to Seth – the HVAC tech, who came out to check on a leak coming from my Furnace. I called the office around 3:00 pm on a Friday afternoon, and Seth promptly came over. He determined my hose drains were clogged, replaced them, checked my air conditioner unit and put in a device to help with condensation. The problem was solved, and I was happy I did not have to wait until Monday to have someone come out! Thanks!”
What Should You Look for Before Choosing a Furnace Company?
Yes. The furnace matters, but the company installing it has a major influence on how that equipment performs, how easy it is to service and what ownership looks like years later.
A good installation has to account for airflow, sheet metal, venting, gas, electrical, drainage, controls, startup and future service access. That is why we put so much emphasis on written installation standards and commissioning, not just the name on the furnace.
We also choose equipment with parts availability and long-term serviceability in mind because we expect our own technicians to be working on it years from now.
Yes. A furnace replacement involves fuel gas, combustion, venting, electrical and the heating system your family depends on all winter.
We pull the required HVAC permit on every furnace replacement. It is part of the job, not an optional add-on or something left for the homeowner to coordinate.
Commissioning is the final process of checking that the newly installed furnace is actually operating the way it should.
Turning the furnace on is not enough. The system needs to be started, checked and verified after installation so the technician knows the equipment is operating correctly before the job is considered complete.
Every Austin furnace replacement includes a precision startup and commissioning process.
Look beyond the manufacturer’s parts warranty and ask what happens when the furnace actually needs a repair.
Every furnace we install includes the manufacturer’s warranty, including 10-year parts coverage on our current furnace line.
Our Signature Series goes further. Keep Club Austin active and Austin covers furnace repairs 100% for ten years under the program terms.
The goal is simple: outside of normal maintenance, you should not have to wonder what the next furnace repair is going to cost.
The important thing is getting advice from someone who understands what happens after the sale.
At Austin, you choose your furnace with an HVAC tradesperson instead of a commissioned salesperson. That person understands the equipment, the installation, the service issues that show up later and where spending more actually creates a meaningful benefit.
We keep the choices simple, explain the trade-offs and let you decide what fits your home and budget.
Compare more than the furnace model and the total price.
Look at who is helping you make the decision, whether permits are included, how the company handles duct transitions and venting, whether electrical work requires another contractor, whether the furnace is commissioned after installation, what happens to the old equipment and who will service the system later.
At Austin, you work with HVAC tradespeople instead of commissioned salespeople, we pull permits on every replacement, handle HVAC and electrical work in-house, commission every furnace we install, remove the old equipment and stand behind the system for the next ten years.
Those differences affect the experience long after installation day.
Yes, and it can make the project considerably simpler when additional electrical work is needed.
Austin has HVAC and licensed electrical capability in-house. If a furnace replacement uncovers an electrical issue or requires work beyond the normal equipment connection, you do not have to find and coordinate a separate electrical contractor.
The job stays under one roof.
