NEW FURNACE. DONE RIGHT. STAYS WARM.
Installation is where efficiency is won or lost. We size it properly, install it correctly, and make sure it runs like it should, every season.
Furnace Installation in the Brainerd Lakes Area
A furnace installation done properly sets up years of reliable, efficient heating. One done sloppily, wrong size, improper venting, poor airflow balance, causes problems that follow you for the entire life of the equipment. At Maverick’s Heating & Air, we take furnace installation seriously because the stakes in a Brainerd Lakes Area winter are real. Your furnace isn’t optional equipment up here.
Getting the Size Right First
The first thing we do is calculate the right size for your specific home. Bigger is not better with furnaces. An oversized furnace short-cycles, it fires up, heats the space quickly, shuts off before reaching steady-state combustion efficiency, then does it again. This wastes fuel, creates temperature swings, and wears out components faster. An undersized furnace runs constantly and still can’t keep up on the coldest days. Proper sizing, based on a Manual J heat load calculation, gets you a system that heats steadily and efficiently for years.
High-Efficiency Furnaces: Worth the Investment in Minnesota
Once we know the right size, we’ll walk you through your efficiency options. High-efficiency condensing furnaces at 96-98% AFUE extract so much heat from combustion that they exhaust cool, damp air through PVC pipe rather than hot gas through a metal flue. That extra efficiency means more of every gas dollar actually heats your home. In a climate where you’re running the furnace for six or more months, the payback timeline is often three to five years, and in Brainerd, Baxter, and the broader lakes region, that math consistently favors going high-efficiency.
What Our Installation Covers
Our installation process is complete and fully documented:
