[QUOTE="ctmom05, post: 212460, member: 2901"] Hi Witz, We are replacing our furnace.....almost as we speak. Ours is an oil unit and we are replacing it with the same thing. Our home is much smaller than yours, but I think the process of choices is just as "big." It was recommended to me that we get 3 estimates, or more if we had a mind to. One estimate was from a large nationally known company with subcontractors - Sears. Another was from a local family run heating contractor's biz - who has worked on our old furnace and came recommended by another tradesman and a friend of mine. I would like to get a 3rd, but haven't lined one up yet. The local guy, who seems to be a good choice, recommended a Peerless furnace. His complete job estimate was 6k. Sears was substantially higher and while the estimate visit was very thorough, I felt like I was dealing with a used car salesman who tries to win you over and make a sale right away. [/QUOTE]
