Our furnace installation process includes comprehensive ductwork inspection and modification when necessary.

Last February, Jennifer called us at 11:30 PM when her furnace stopped working during one of the coldest nights of the winter. She had tried calling two other local heating companies first, but neither answered their emergency lines. “I was starting to panic because my pipes were going to freeze,” Jennifer told us. “When I reached Central Plumbing, someone answered immediately and promised a technician would be there within an hour.”
Our NATE-certified technician arrived at Jennifer’s home near Hiway Drive in just 45 minutes and quickly diagnosed that her 18-year-old furnace’s heat exchanger had cracked and couldn’t be safely repaired. Instead of leaving her without heat overnight like other companies might have done, we had a new high-efficiency furnace delivered and installed by 8 AM the next morning. “The whole experience was incredible,” Jennifer said. “They had me warm again before my neighbors even knew there was a problem, and the new furnace has cut my heating bills by almost 40%.”
Robert, a homeowner in the Pleasant Valley Road area, had been getting estimates for furnace replacement for months. “Three other companies gave me quotes that kept changing every time I talked to them,” he explained. “One company wanted to charge me almost $3,000 more than their original estimate for ‘necessary upgrades’ they never mentioned initially. When Central Plumbing gave me their quote, it was detailed, fair, and never changed by a single dollar.”
Maria, who manages several rental properties throughout Oreland, relies on Central Plumbing for all her heating installations and repairs. “I need a company I can count on to respond fast and do quality work that lasts,” she said. “Central Plumbing has installed furnaces in six of my properties over the past three years, and every single installation has been perfect.

Proper furnace sizing is crucial for both comfort and efficiency, and it requires more than just looking at your home’s square footage. Our NATE-certified technicians perform detailed load calculations that consider your home’s insulation levels, window types, ceiling height, and local climate conditions here in Montgomery County. We also factor in the age and architectural style of your home, which is especially important in Oreland where we have everything from historic properties to modern constructions. Central Plumbing uses industry-standard Manual J load calculation software to determine the exact BTU capacity your home needs, ensuring your new furnace operates efficiently without being oversized or undersized.
Most furnace installations in Oreland homes take between 6 to 10 hours, depending on the complexity of the installation and whether any ductwork modifications are needed. Central Plumbing offers same-day furnace installation in many cases, especially for emergency situations where a family is without heat. Our technicians carry common furnace sizes on their trucks, and we maintain strong relationships with local suppliers to ensure quick delivery of any equipment we don’t have immediately available. We understand that Pennsylvania winters don’t wait, so we prioritize emergency installations and can often have you back up and running with reliable heat within 24 hours of your initial call.
Standard efficiency furnaces typically have AFUE ratings between 80% and 85%, meaning they convert that percentage of fuel into usable heat. High-efficiency furnaces achieve AFUE ratings of 90% or higher, with some ultra-high efficiency models reaching 98% efficiency. Here in Oreland and throughout Montgomery County, high-efficiency furnaces can significantly reduce your winter heating bills, especially given our cold winters. These systems use advanced heat exchanger technology and often include variable-speed motors that provide better comfort control. Central Plumbing can help you calculate the long-term energy savings to determine whether the higher upfront cost of a high-efficiency furnace makes financial sense for your specific situation and usage patterns.
Absolutely. Central Plumbing handles all permit applications and scheduling of required inspections for furnace installations in Oreland and throughout Montgomery County.
