FROM YOUR NEIGHBORS

What Our Homeowners Say.

★★★★★
"My self-contained wine cooling unit died, and I feared it would be a huge task to replace. Cardinal came out and installed a new one in an hour and a half. Extremely friendly, very clean work, and even took the old unit at no extra cost. They went above and beyond in every way, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience."
Jeff W.
★★★★★
"Cardinal HVAC is the absolute best. Don’t waste your time with others. Not only are they very professional and do excellent work, but they’re honest and friendly. Quick example, I had an AC problem and a couple companies came out and said it would be about a $3000 job. Cardinal came out and said it actually wasn’t a big problem and fixed it for a few hundred bucks!"
TJ B.
★★★★★
"Cardinal was great. Called them for a second opinion after the first company told us we needed a new furnace. The tech from Cardinal, Jordan, was very professional and thorough. His diagnosis was that our furnace needed a little TLC. Did not identify any major issues. Told us about their bi-annual service program and how they could help us extend the life of our HVAC system. Highly recommend."
Matt D.
★★★★★
"Cardinal heating and cooling is great! We had a panic one evening after hours during below 0 temps when our heater wasn’t responding. Cardinal responded immediately with troubleshooting steps and walked us through what to do. What they suggested worked and our family was able to sleep cozily that night!"
Rachel M.
★★★★★
"Every person I’ve interacted with at Cardinal has been knowledgeable, respectful, solution-oriented, and refreshingly honest. They’ve truly worked miracles keeping my older system running efficiently and reliably for as long as they have."
Arielle Z.
★★★★★
"Great responsive service. We have used them for the past 5 years + and never disappoint. We have dealt with both the owner on a holiday and Jordan several times which is nice to have consistency. very nice and professional. They don't try to fear monger or scare you with expensive solutions either. Trust worthy."

Frequently Asked Furnace Installation Questions

How do I know if I need a new furnace?
It may be time to consider furnace replacement if your system is more than 15 years old, requires frequent repairs, produces uneven temperatures, or no longer heats your property effectively. Rising energy bills and unusual furnace noises can also indicate that the system is declining.

Our technicians can inspect your furnace and help you determine whether repair or replacement makes more financial sense.

What should I consider when choosing a new furnace?
Important factors include the size and layout of your property, the condition of your ductwork, your energy-efficiency goals, available fuel sources, equipment features, and your budget.

Cardinal Heating & Cooling will evaluate these factors and explain your options so you can make an informed decision.

What size furnace do I need?
The correct furnace size depends on more than your property’s square footage. Insulation, windows, ceiling height, layout, ductwork, and other factors can affect how much heating capacity you need.

An improperly sized furnace may operate inefficiently or create uneven temperatures. We assess your property before recommending equipment to help ensure the new furnace is properly sized.

How long does it take to install a furnace?
A standard residential furnace replacement can often be completed within one day. Installation may take longer if ductwork changes, system modifications, or other improvements are needed.

We will review the expected timeline with you before installation begins.

How long does a new furnace last?
A properly installed and maintained furnace can often last between 15 and 20 years. Its actual lifespan will depend on the quality of the equipment, how frequently it is used, and whether it receives regular professional maintenance.
Can installing a new furnace lower my heating costs?
Replacing an older or inefficient furnace may reduce energy consumption and help lower heating costs. Potential savings will depend on the efficiency and condition of your previous furnace, the rating of the new equipment, your thermostat settings, and the energy efficiency of your property.
