How much does a new heating and cooling (HVAC) system cost?

If your heating and cooling (HVAC) system needs frequent repairs, your energy costs are skyrocketing, or your system is older than eight years, it may be time to consider replacing it. While it may seem costly, replacing your system with a newer and more energy-efficient system can save you money in the long run and provide a long-term solution while giving you peace of mind.

New federal requirements to drive up costs for heating and cooling equipment

Recent federal law established higher minimum standards for efficiency that go into effect January 1st, 2003, reports Service Plus co-owner, Chris Cunningham. According to Cunningham, “increased efficiency requirements increase the cost of new equipment; and if your furnace and air conditioning system are over ten years old or you’ve considered taking advantage of the superior efficiency, reliability, and comfort of a new system, you may want to act quickly.”

The recent Inflation Reduction Act enacted laws around global warming and established higher minimum standards for heating and cooling efficiency that goes into effect on January 1, 2023, reports Service Plus co-owner, Chris Cunningham.
