When Replacement Makes Sense
- Gas or electric bills keep climbing even though usage hasn't changed

What Moves the Price

- Condition of the existing ductwork and any changes it needs
- AFUE rating: a basic 80% unit vs. a 96% condensing furnace

Florida Permits, Efficiency Rules and Rebates
Florida is in the DOE's Southeast region, where new split central air conditioners need at least 14.3 SEER2 (13.8 SEER2 for systems of 45,000 BTU/h and up). Equipment replacements in Town 'n' Country generally need a mechanical permit, and a reputable contractor will pull it for you. Ask for their Florida license or registration number and a certificate of insurance with the quote. The federal 25C tax credit ended for equipment installed after December 31, 2025, so incentives now come mostly from utilities and state programs. Check your electric and gas utility's rebate page before you pick equipment.
Before You Hire
- Ask for the Manual J load calculation in writing. Oversized furnaces are the most common mistake we see.
- Look up utility rebates on 95%+ AFUE units before you buy.
- Replace it in early fall if you can. A no-heat emergency in January costs more and leaves you fewer choices.
