Has your old furnace become inefficient? Maybe, the time has come to buy a new furnace. But there are many factors to consider, like furnace pricing in Ottawa. 

Here are some factors that determine the cost of a furnace

[1] The furnace type

Natural gas furnaces are the most common type of furnaces. They have a steel or aluminium heat exchanger, which is designed to burn natural gas or propane gas. Oil-fired furnaces are more expensive due to the cost of the oil. However, oil-fired furnaces are more efficient than other types, so there is a trade-off.

If you are planning on installing a central heating system that delivers hot water to more than one room, then you should consider buying an air-to-water heat pump furnace. This type of furnace offers excellent efficiency because it can deliver both heat and hot water through your ductwork at the same time.

[2] The size of your house

This is a major factor when deciding which type of furnace to buy. Most furnaces are available in various sizes depending on how many rooms you have in your home. The size of the furnace will determine the size of the unit and thus the cost.

The smaller a furnace is, the cheaper it will be because you can buy a smaller unit that will fit into a tighter space in the attic or basement. The larger a furnace is, the more expensive it will be because you can buy a larger unit that requires more space, so it does not occupy as much space in your home.

[3] Location

The location of your furnace also affects pricing. Natural gas furnaces are usually cheaper because natural gas is less expensive than oil to use. However, if you have a smaller house, then you might want to consider buying an oil heat system because oil is much more efficient in a smaller space.

You should also consider how close your home is to a propane fuel source in case you decide to go with a propane-fuelled furnace. The closer your home is located to the source, the lower the delivery costs will be.
