One guided estimate for an HVAC repair, replacement, or new installation. Tell us the project, the system, and a few details about your home, and we'll show a cost range, the labor and equipment split, how long it takes, and what can push the price up. Estimates only — not a contractor quote.

This estimator gives you the big picture. For a specific project, these tools ask more detailed questions.
A like-for-like replacement of a central AC and gas furnace typically runs $8,000 to $16,000 installed. A full new installation with ductwork can run $12,000 to $25,000 or more. Repairs usually fall between $150 and $1,500.
No. This tool gives a planning estimate based on typical pricing. Your actual price depends on the equipment brand, site conditions, permits, and local labor rates. Always get at least two written quotes.
Adding or resizing ductwork, an electrical panel upgrade, difficult attic or crawlspace access, refrigerant line replacement on older systems, zoning, permits, and peak-season scheduling all raise the price.
As a rule of thumb, if the system is more than about 12 years old and the repair costs more than half the price of a new one, replacement is usually the better value. Our Repair or Replace calculator weighs age, repair cost, and energy use.
This calculator produces a planning estimate using common industry pricing rules of thumb — it is not a diagnosis or a contractor quote. HVAC pricing varies widely by region, equipment brand, contractor, permit requirements, and site conditions. Always obtain written quotes from licensed local contractors before making a decision.
