When a furnace is 15 to 20 years old, cracked, or costing more to patch each winter than it is worth, a new one is the right call — but only if it is sized and installed correctly. American Comfort installs high-efficiency gas furnaces and dual-fuel systems across Winder, Gwinnett County and Athens, with 0% financing for 72 months and a free second opinion on any replacement quote.

Signs it is time to replace, not repair
- The furnace is 15+ years old and needs a major part (heat exchanger, blower motor, control board)
- A cracked heat exchanger — a safety issue, not a repair
- Gas bills climbing while the house feels no warmer
- Uneven heat, short cycling, or it cannot keep up on cold nights
- You have paid for repairs two winters in a row
Your options
- High-efficiency gas furnace (96%+ AFUE) — the straightforward replacement for a gas-heated home
- Dual-fuel system — a GE Connect heat pump paired with a gas furnace; the heat pump handles mild days cheaply, the furnace takes over in the cold. Often the lowest operating cost in our climate
- Heat pump conversion — for all-electric homes, replacing electric-resistance heat with a heat pump can qualify for Georgia Power rebates of up to $1,500
How we install a furnace
- Load calculation, so the new furnace is sized for your house — not just matched to the old nameplate
- Ductwork and venting checked; we tell you if the ducts are the real problem
- New furnace set, vented, wired and gas-tested to code
- Combustion analysis and full commissioning before we leave; readings recorded on your job
- Registered manufacturer warranty plus our labor guarantee
- Old equipment hauled away
What a new furnace costs
Installed price depends on size, efficiency and whether ductwork or venting needs work. Rather than quote a number that does not fit your house, we come out, measure, and give you a written price with financing shown as a monthly payment. If you already have a quote, we will review it free.
Frequently asked questions
How long does a furnace installation take? Most straightforward replacements are completed in one day. Dual-fuel or systems that need duct or venting changes may take two.
Should I replace the furnace and the AC at the same time? If both are near the end of their life, replacing together as a matched system usually costs less than two separate jobs and avoids compatibility problems. We will show you both prices.
Is a dual-fuel system worth it in Georgia? Often, yes. Our winters are mild most days, when a heat pump heats for a fraction of the gas cost; the furnace only runs on the coldest nights. Ask us to run the numbers for your home.
Do you offer financing on a new furnace? Yes — 0% for 72 months on approved credit.
