Furnace Installation in Lehigh, PA
furnace installation in Lehigh, PA 18088 — diagnosed before it is quoted, priced before the work starts.
Many Lehigh homes have been insulated or had windows replaced since the original furnace went in, which means they now need less furnace than the one sitting in the basement. Replacing like for like repeats an error that can be decades old.
Describe the symptom rather than the part. Working out which component that points at is our job, and it is faster over the phone than you might expect.
The venting question
If your old furnace shares a chimney with a gas water heater and you move to a sidewall-vented condensing unit, that water heater is left alone on a flue sized for two appliances. It may then be too cold and too large to draft safely, and relining belongs in the quote rather than in a surprise later.
Heating and cooling around Lehigh
Natural gas covers most of south-eastern Pennsylvania, and in Northampton County that means gas furnaces and gas-fired boilers make up the bulk of what we service. The older housing here still holds a remarkable number of hot water and steam systems feeding cast iron radiators — systems worth maintaining rather than tearing out.
Heat pumps are arriving quickly in newer Lehigh construction, and dual-fuel setups pairing a heat pump with a gas furnace suit this climate well.
We quote the repair first and let you decide. Plenty of the systems we are asked to replace in Lehigh need a part, and saying so costs us the larger job.
What happens when you call
We show you what we found. That matters most when the answer is bad news — a condemned system should come with evidence, not just an assertion.

Furnace Installation in Lehigh — questions
Do you cover Lehigh for furnace installation?
Yes. Lehigh in Northampton County is inside our service area and the 18088 postal area is worked by the nearest crew. Call (215) 484-0300 at any hour, including nights, weekends and holidays.
Should I consider a heat pump instead?
For some Lehigh properties, yes — particularly where you also want cooling, or where the alternative is electric resistance heat. We will give you the comparison for your actual house.
How long should a furnace last?
Commonly fifteen to twenty years, longer with consistent maintenance. Age alone is not a reason to replace one that is working safely, but it changes the maths on an expensive repair.
Is a 95 percent furnace always better?
Not always. It depends on fuel cost, how long you will stay, and what the venting change involves — including whether a shared chimney needs relining for a water heater left on it.
How do you decide what size I need?
From a heat loss calculation for your actual house, not a rule of thumb and not by matching the old unit. Insulation and window upgrades mean many Lehigh homes now need less furnace than they had.
