Installing a gas furnace requires careful planning and attention to detail. We begin with a proper load calculation to size the furnace correctly. Correct sizing prevents short cycling and uneven heating. After selecting the right model, our HVAC estimators inspect the installation area. We confirm proper clearances, combustion air, and structural support. If replacing an existing unit, we safely disconnect the gas, power, venting, and ductwork. We then remove and dispose of the old furnace.
Next, we position the new Ameristar furnace and level it properly. Proper leveling supports airflow and condensate drainage. Afterward, technicians reconnect the supply and return ductwork and seal all joints tightly. This step reduces air leaks and improves efficiency. We connect the gas line and perform a pressure test to check for leaks. We also personally complete all electrical wiring, including thermostat connections.
Included in installation is adjusting the venting system to meet manufacturer and any code requirements. For high-efficiency models, we install the condensate drain and trap. We’ll always try to test the drain to confirm proper flow. After installation, the techs start the system and complete a full performance check. This includes verifying gas pressure, temperature rise, and airflow. Service Pro Titans’ technicians will double-check that the system operates within manufacturer specifications.
Finally, we test the thermostat and review system operation with the homeowner. We always strive to explain the value of basic maintenance and regular filter replacement. A properly installed Ameristar gas furnace can deliver reliable heat and strong energy efficiency for years to come and dependable comfort throughout the winter season.
