How Astera Helps You Choose the Right Furnace

Before we recommend residential furnace installation services, we check:
  • Your heating requirements
  • Property size and layout
  • Insulation
  • Windows
  • Ductwork
  • Airflow
  • Your existing system
  • Available fuel: natural gas, propane, or electricity
  • Electrical connections (for an electric furnace)
  • Your budget

We use these measurements to recommend a furnace sized to your home. The right furnace isn’t automatically the largest unit or the one with the highest AFUE rating. We’ll help you find a system that matches your heating load. This way, a properly sized furnace runs in longer, steadier cycles, which means more even heat and less wear on its components.

Furnace Options for Chicago Homes

When you trust us with furnace installation services in Chicago, IL, you have many unit options to choose from.

Gas Furnace
Installation

If your home already has a natural gas line, a gas furnace is usually the simplest choice.

Propane Furnace Installation

Propane furnaces work much like natural gas models but draw fuel from an on-site tank. They suit homes without a natural gas line.

High-Efficiency
Furnaces

A high-efficiency furnace has an AFUE rating of 90% or higher. Every model vents through plastic pipe and needs a condensate drain. Many add a variable-speed blower and multi-stage burner.

Val was extremely professional and helpful. He was upfront with the total cost, came back same day with the needed parts, worked to find the best price for the parts saving me money, and made recommendations for future trade-in service on a humidifier. Will definitely use Astera services again and recommend them to other condo unit owners.

I contacted Astera because I was not getting any heat in my baseboard heating system on the first floor of my home. Upon emailing them I received a response within the same day as well as numerous options for a in-home appointment and service. So they sent Steven who is one of the technicians for HVAC. Upon talking with him as well as inspecting the boiler in my basement he immediately came up with a plan. Steven spent a lot of time making sure I understood about what happened and why I was not getting any heat. He discussed with me what needed to be done and he made sure I understood. He completed all of the required work and I was very happy with the money that I spent for my total repair. This is the third time I have used Astera for issues in my home as well as my sister's home. I have been so happy with the service that I receive from Astera and will definitely continue to use them down the road. Thanks Steven John N Westchester

Astera was able to come look at our appliance a few hours after my initial outreach. The technicians were friendly, trustworthy, and repaired our SubZero with no problem. I recommend them without reservation!

I had both my washer and dryer serviced by Val. He walked me through everything he was working on and was finished up in about an hour. He was very knowledgeable with the specific models that I had. I would highly recommend!

I read the Yelp reviews for Astera before I reached out to them, and the 5-star reviews are spot on! I sent a message via Yelp on a Sunday night and they immediately scheduled our oven troubleshooting for Monday afternoon. Their front office staff is incredibly responsive! George (technician) arrived timely and was very thorough. He explained things to me every step of the way. He is approaching this very methodically - ok, so it's not the igniter, let's look at the next link in the chain... I saw George called out by name in other Yelp reviews, and I understand why he comes so highly recommended! He called the manufacturer to discuss his findings, but the manufacturer tech team wasn't available. He let me know he would be calling them again in the morning and that he would reach out to me with an update. I've had plenty of negative or so-so experiences with other service technicians from other companies. This experience with George / Astera is so positive that I'm posting my review even before the service is completed. Astera will be getting first crack at all of my appliance and HVAC service calls going forward.

This is my second experience with Astera and have only the highest praise for this business and the people that work there. From the person who answers the phone to the technician who comes out, everyone is friendly and polite. They're great with communication so you know when their techs are coming out. Our Sub-Zero fridge was throwing error codes which they diagnosed and repaired a faulty board. The work was done right and Alex explained everything afterwards. Highly recommend.

Absolutely amazing company and employees! Rebuilt a brand new furnace installed by someone else, redid air intakes, humidifiers, disposal, broken freezer. Constant communication and always on time I'm so happy I found them! They even provided a rebate for taxes which the original installer wouldn't. 100% pleased, can't say enough good things about them!

I recently had both the heat and hot water go out. I have an old boiler that needed several new parts but otherwise works fine. They recommended regular maintenance but unlike other HVAC companies don't try to sell you a new, much more expensive system. If you appreciate a company that will just fix your problem without upselling you, I would recommend Astera. The techs are friendly and knowledgeable. They talk you through the repair and answer any questions.

found Astera Heating, Cooling and Appiances from a Google search. Their reviews were nothing but positive so I hired them to work on my boiler. The office staff was kind and professional. The service technician is extremely knowledgeable and did a thorough job on our repair. The interaction from start to finish was professional and efficient. I am adding my positive review to the reviews out on the internet. I would recommend this company for your Heating and Cooling needs.

Freqently Asked Questions

1
How much does furnace installation cost in Chicago?
In Chicago, the average cost to install a new furnace is $4,022, with a typical price range between $2,487 and $5,563. However, depending on the system size, fuel type, and efficiency ratings, a full-scale replacement can reach anywhere from $3,000 to $14,000 for premium, high-efficiency systems.
2
How do I know whether to repair or replace my furnace?
Consider replacement when a furnace is 15 or more years old and needs frequent repairs, raises your energy bills, or heats unevenly. But if your unit is new and the repair is minor, consider fixing it first.
3
What size furnace does my home need?
The furnace size your home needs is set by its heating load, which is the amount of heat required to keep the home warm on the coldest days. Furnace capacity is commonly measured in BTUs. Insulation, windows, air leakage, and home size all affect the number, and the furnace also has to suit your ductwork.
4
What does AFUE mean?
AFUE (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) shows how much of a furnace's fuel becomes heat for your home over a year. 95% of the fuel in a furnace with a 95% AFUE rating is converted into heat for your house, with the other 5% escaping through the exhaust.
5
How long does furnace installation take?
A standard furnace installation takes 4 to 8 hours (about half a day to a full day) when replacing an old unit with a compatible new one. A like-for-like swap takes less time than a job that changes the electrical, gas, venting, or ductwork. Furnace type and access to the installation area also matter.
6
Will Astera remove my old furnace?
Yes. As a trusted furnace installation company, we disconnect, remove, and dispose of your old furnace as part of the installation. Our techs will safely disconnect, haul away, and properly dispose of your old heating equipment as part of our full-service installation process. Then we’ll install the new system and make any electrical or ductwork modifications (if applicable).
7
What happens during a furnace installation?
During the installation, our team will evaluate your site and existing furnace. We’ll calculate your heating load and properly size your new system. We’ll safely remove your existing unit and connect the new heater. Finally, we’ll perform safety, airflow, and operational testing before completing the project.
