The mechanism

How you pay about 30% less for the same furnace.

An HVAC crew with an empty Tuesday earns nothing that day. They would rather run your replacement at a fair price than park the truck. We find those open days and put your job in one.

  1. 01

    Tell us about your home and furnace

    Address or zip, furnace age, fuel type, whether it still runs, and rough square footage. Five screens, about a minute.

  2. 02

    We match the job to a contractor with open capacity

    We look at which licensed local contractors have days that are not booked this week, and which of them fits the equipment your house needs.

    You get the price before anyone comes out

    A real number, about 30% under a typical Minneapolis quote. Nobody sits in your kitchen running a sales pitch first.

Why quotes run high

  • Most replacement quotes are priced for a full schedule, so you pay for the contractor's busiest week even when you are not in it.
  • Replacements are usually urgent, and urgent buyers do not shop.
  • The first cold snap books every calendar in the metro at once, and prices follow.
  • August is the cheapest month to replace a furnace in Minnesota because nobody is thinking about heat yet.

What does not change

  • The contractors are licensed in Minnesota and insured.
  • The equipment is the same brands and the same models.
  • The manufacturer warranty is the same.
  • The permit gets pulled and the city inspects the work.
  • Only the timing of the install changes, and that is where the money comes from.

Five short questions. We match your job to a licensed contractor with an open day and come back with a real price.
