BOOKING THE FURNACE INSTALLATION

After you choose the replacement option that is best for you, we will get the furnace installation booked and start to pull together the equipment, materials, and parts for the job. Once all of the required install equipment is fulfilled, we will get it staged for the day of installation.

NEW FURNACE INSTALLATION DAY

The most important day in your new furnace’s life is the day that it is installed. And if you select Austin Plumbing, Heating & Air to install your new furnace, you are in great hands. Our install team typically arrives between 8:00 and 8:30 AM in an furnace and sheet metal fab shop on wheels with your equipment and the tools necessary to install your new system. 

We will ensure protection of your home by putting down drop cloths and taking other precautions to make sure your home is protected. 

A typical furnace replacement is finished the same day it’s started, usually ending between 3:00 and 5:00 PM. Your furnace install team will then clean up their work area and make sure you know how to operate your new system.

SERVICE THAT GOES BEYOND THE FURNACE INSTALLATION

Before heading out for the day, and only after you are completely satisfied with the installation, we will finish any on job site paperwork and collect final payment for the furnace install. 

Back at the office, our team will make sure your new furnace equipment is logged in our system, registered with the manufacturer (if required), permits are pulled, and will assist with any rebate or energy credit paperwork as needed.
