Gas Furnaces

Yes. We hold Washington contractor licenses BALLANG062QD and BASHAAP823QR, and our technicians are licensed professionals. We are also a Mitsubishi Diamond Elite Contractor, a Trane Comfort Specialist and a Lennox Premier Dealer, and a longstanding member of the Air Conditioning Contractors of America.

Yes. Ballard Heating, Cooling, Electric & Plumbing offers financing options to help you spread the cost of larger projects, such as a new heat pump, furnace, air conditioner, water heater, or electrical panel upgrade, into manageable monthly payments. Visit our Financing page to see current options, or call us at 206-784-8101 and our team will walk you through what's available for your project.

We quote upfront, before the work starts, so there is no surprise at the end. For larger jobs we put a detailed proposal together onsite and back it with our Price Lock Guarantee, which means the price we put in writing is the price you pay. Estimates are free.

By calculating the actual heat loss of your house rather than matching the output of the old unit. Furnaces were routinely oversized decades ago, so copying what is there tends to repeat the mistake. An oversized furnace short cycles, wears faster and leaves rooms unevenly heated.

Most straightforward replacements are done in a day. If the venting, gas line or ductwork needs modifying, or the new unit sits differently in the space, it can run longer. You get a detailed proposal onsite first, so you know the scope and the price before we start.

Since 1993. We have been locally-led and operated that whole time, which is more than thirty years working on homes in this region. That matters more than it sounds: Puget Sound housing stock runs from 1920s bungalows to new construction, and the right answer for one is rarely the right answer for the other.

Often the same day. If you call before 1pm we can usually get a technician to you that day, and members of our 5 Star Maintenance Plan go to the front of the queue. Our vans are stocked, so most common repairs are finished on the first visit rather than waiting on a part.

It is worth costing out. A heat pump heats and cools with one system and runs efficiently in our winters, and rebates and tax credits often favor it. A gas furnace can still be the better answer depending on your rates, ducting and how long you plan to stay. We will show you both rather than steering you.

Higher AFUE means more of the gas you buy becomes heat in your house, and the difference shows up every month for fifteen years. The right level depends on how much you run it and what rebates apply, so we will work the payback out on your actual usage rather than quoting a generic figure.

It is our annual maintenance membership. Members get discounted annual maintenance, priority service, no overtime charges, a discounted diagnostic fee that is free at the Platinum level, an extended repair warranty, discounted water heater service, and a reminder when your maintenance is due. Members who call before 1pm can usually be seen the same day.

A three year labor warranty on our work as standard, plus a Lifetime Workmanship Warranty. Manufacturer warranties on the equipment itself run separately and vary by brand and model. A Comfort Shield Extended Warranty is available if you want coverage beyond that, and we will explain what each one covers before you decide.
