Age is a good place to start. The average furnace life expectancy is 18 years, but age isn’t the whole story. If your furnace is 15+ years old, breaking down often, or costing you more in energy bills, it may be time to upgrade.
ENERGY STAR points to the same signs: a furnace that’s more than 15 years old, or equipment that needs frequent repairs while your energy bills keep going up. Repair or replace can be a tough call, and we believe in honesty and recommending the best solution for your situation.
There’s no single price. Efficiency is a big one: high-efficiency condensing furnaces are usually more expensive up front than standard-efficiency models. Your home’s setup matters too, so for an accurate number, one of our technicians needs to assess your system and your needs.
We back every replacement with our Low Price Guarantee (apples-to-apples), and special financing is available for HVAC installations (subject to credit approval).
AFUE stands for Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency. In general, it’s the share of the heat in the fuel your furnace burns that turns into heat for your home instead of being lost. Higher is better.
ENERGY STAR puts Colorado in its U.S. North region, where a gas furnace needs a rating of 97% AFUE or greater to earn the label. That’s the bar for ENERGY STAR certification, not a minimum every furnace has to meet. Certified models can cost more up front, and ENERGY STAR says the difference is paid back over time through lower energy bills.
No. House Bill 23-1161 covers new products, not the furnace already heating your home. Since January 1, 2026, a new fan-type central furnace (a ducted, forced-air furnace) can’t be made, distributed, sold, or leased in Colorado unless its emissions stay at or under 14 nanograms of nitrogen oxides (NOx) per joule, or it’s certified to the most recent version of ENERGY STAR.
Products held in inventory in Colorado on that date are exempt.
It depends on who sends your gas bill. If it’s Atmos Energy, their SmartChoice program pays you back on high-efficiency gas furnaces. Atmos serves Greeley, much of Windsor and the rest of the Weld County side of our area.
In Fort Collins, Loveland, and most of Larimer County, your gas comes from Xcel Energy. The Xcel rebates on our rebates page are for upgrades like heat pumps, insulation, and air sealing, so ask us, and we’ll work out what applies. Programs generally set a minimum efficiency rating, and we’ll check what you qualify for before you buy.
Don’t wait until your old furnace fails in the middle of winter. Call Fort Collins Heating & Air Conditioning — the Home of the 1-Year Test Drive and 100% Satisfaction Guarantee — for trusted furnace installation and replacement in Fort Collins, CO.
