How much does a new furnace cost in Brentwood
A new furnace installation in Brentwood and Contra Costa County typically ranges from $4,500 to $12,000 depending on efficiency level, brand, and installation complexity. High-efficiency models (95%+ AFUE) cost more upfront but save significantly on energy bills.
What size furnace do I need for my home?
Furnace sizing depends on your home's square footage, insulation, windows, and local climate. We perform Manual J load calculations to determine the exact BTU capacity needed.

How long does furnace installation take?
Most furnace replacements are completed in one day (4-8 hours). New installations requiring ductwork modifications may take 1-2 days.

Why Choose Professional Furnace Installation in Brentwood?
Choosing the right furnace for your Brentwood home means matching system efficiency to your local climate and existing ductwork. Brentwood's eastern Contra Costa location creates hot, dry summers with temperatures regularly reaching 95-105°F, while winters are mild and moderate. This extreme summer heat makes powerful AC essential. Our certified technicians evaluate your home's insulation, duct condition, and heating load before recommending any system — so you get the right size, not an oversized unit that short-cycles. Deer Ridge and Harvest Park homeowners increasingly choose high-efficiency variable-speed furnaces (96%+ AFUE) or hybrid heat pump systems to reduce gas dependence. Galaxy handles all permits and utility paperwork for Contra Costa County.
