Getting a new furnace installed is a big job, but it's worth it for a warm house all winter. They first have to remove the old unit, which can be heavy and awkward. Then the crew fits the new one, connects all the ductwork and gas lines, and wires it to the thermostat. It usually takes a full day, and you'll want to make sure they test everything before they leave, especially the safety shut-offs.
