Gas furnaces, heat pumps, or electric panels — we compare real costs, efficiency ratings, and federal tax credits so you can make a confident decision for your home.
Older heating systems quietly drain your wallet. Here's what a modern replacement actually delivers.
Modern high-efficiency gas furnaces operate at 96–98% AFUE, while heat pumps can deliver 3× more heat energy than the electricity they consume. Homeowners typically report 20–40% lower monthly utility bills after upgrading from a system older than 15 years.
The Inflation Reduction Act extended energy-efficiency incentives through 2032. Qualifying heat pumps and high-efficiency furnaces may earn you up to $2,000 in federal tax credits per year, plus additional state rebates that vary by location.
Today's systems include advanced multi-stage burners, variable-speed blowers, and built-in air filtration. Heat pumps provide both heating and cooling from one unit, eliminating the need for a separate AC system in many climates.
A properly installed new furnace or heat pump comes with manufacturer warranties of 10–12 years on parts. Routine maintenance can extend actual service life to 20+ years, protecting your investment for the long haul.
Real estate appraisers consistently note that updated HVAC systems add measurable value to a home. Buyers today specifically ask about system age, efficiency ratings, and fuel type when evaluating a purchase.
Switching from an old oil furnace to a heat pump or high-efficiency gas system can reduce annual CO₂ emissions by 1–3 tons per household, depending on your climate zone and local electricity grid.
We specialize exclusively in residential heating system replacements across the western United States. Our certified technicians assess your current setup, calculate your actual heating load, and walk you through every option — without pressure or upselling.
We compare gas furnaces (80% vs. 96% AFUE), air-source heat pumps, ground-source heat pumps, and electric panel heating so you choose based on your home's size, insulation level, local utility rates, and long-term goals.
A ThermoShift advisor evaluates your current system, ductwork condition, and home insulation before recommending anything.
We provide a written breakdown of equipment cost, installation, projected annual savings, and payback period for each system type.
All installations meet EPA and local building code requirements. Permits are pulled and inspections are coordinated by our team.
We provide the IRS Form 5695 documentation you need to claim your federal energy-efficiency tax credit when you file your return.
Prices include equipment, installation, and permit fees for a typical 2,000 sq ft single-family home. Final quotes vary by location and home specifics.

These are actual experiences from homeowners who replaced aging systems with ThermoShift.
"Our 22-year-old gas furnace finally gave out in November. ThermoShift had us scheduled within 48 hours and installed a new heat pump in one day. Our first heating bill afterward was almost half of what we'd been paying. The team also handled all the paperwork for the federal credit."

"I wasn't sure whether to go gas or electric, and the ThermoShift advisor spent a full hour explaining both options with actual numbers from my utility bills. No pressure at all. We went with a 96% gas furnace and qualified for a $600 tax credit. Installation was clean and fast."
"My old oil furnace was nearly 30 years old. ThermoShift installed a cold-climate heat pump and confirmed it would handle our Utah winters. We're 14 months in — the system works great even when temps drop below 10°F. The $2,000 federal credit came off our taxes this spring."
No obligation. We'll answer your questions, review your current system, and give you honest guidance on what makes sense for your home and budget.
Our team is available Monday through Saturday. Same-day callbacks for urgent heating failures during winter months.
