Furnace Installation

When it comes to staying warm through Minnesota’s coldest seasons, your furnace plays a crucial role in maintaining comfort and safety. At Countryside Refrigeration & Heating, we specialize in expert furnace installation for homes and businesses throughout the Mankato area. Whether you’re building new, replacing an outdated system, or upgrading to a more efficient model, our team provides the guidance and expertise needed to get the job done right.

Why You Might Need Furnace Installation

Older furnaces lose efficiency over time and often struggle to keep up with modern heating demands. You might notice higher energy bills, uneven room temperatures, or the need for frequent repairs. These are all signs it may be time for a new furnace installation. Investing in a properly sized, professionally installed furnace helps eliminate these issues and sets your home up for long-term comfort and reliability. Choosing the right system now can also prevent emergency breakdowns later on when temperatures drop.

What Goes Into a Successful Installation

Furnace installation is more than just replacing an old unit with a new one. It starts with a detailed assessment of your home’s layout, insulation, and ductwork. Our technicians calculate the proper size and type of furnace that matches your space, ensuring optimal airflow and energy use. From safely removing your old equipment to configuring the new system with your home’s unique setup, we manage the entire process to deliver lasting, high-performance results.

Energy Efficiency and Cost Savings

A new furnace installation offers a great opportunity to improve your home’s energy efficiency. Modern systems are designed with better combustion technology, improved airflow, and smart thermostat compatibility, helping reduce monthly utility costs. Many high-efficiency furnaces also qualify for rebates or energy incentives, which can lower your upfront investment. We’ll help you explore those options and explain how your new system will pay off over time through energy savings.

Our Furnace Installation Process

Every installation begins with a site visit and consultation. We take time to listen to your goals, assess your current system, and identify the best replacement options. On installation day, our certified technicians carefully remove the old furnace, make any necessary adjustments to ductwork or gas lines, and install the new system to meet all manufacturer and safety standards. Once everything is connected, we test for proper airflow, functionality, and efficiency. Before we leave, we walk you through how to operate and care for your new system.

Why Choose Countryside Refrigeration & Heating

We bring years of experience and local knowledge to every furnace installation. Our team is fully licensed, NATE-certified, and committed to delivering work that lasts. We don’t just install equipment—we build trust through clear communication, honest recommendations, and dependable results. From our first phone call to your final walkthrough, we make the process simple and stress-free, backed by our dedication to quality and customer satisfaction.

When Is the Right Time to Install?

If your current furnace is more than 15 years old, needs frequent repairs, or can’t keep your home comfortable, it’s worth considering a new system. Scheduling a furnace installation before winter ensures your home stays warm without last-minute emergencies. Planning ahead gives you time to evaluate your options and take advantage of off-season promotions or rebate programs. We’re here to help you determine if now is the right time and walk you through the next steps.

Karen Allen

My first appointment with them was a two hour window and Josh shows up right on time! Friendly, neat, tidy and professional! He serviced the furnace and visually checked the air exchange for me as I was concerned as a new homeowner with tenants. He did a digital CO check and gave it a cleaner bill of health. This game me great peace of mind. 🙂 Thank you Josh!

Response from the owner: Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re so glad to hear Josh was able to provide you with peace of mind and great service during your first appointment. Our team takes pride in being on time, professional, and thorough, and it means a lot that this came through for you.

Patty Petersen

Hands down I would recommend their services. My AC unit went out and it was hard to find the part. They were engaged with finding that part and getting the AC back up and working. They kept me updated as they were finding the part. Amazing customer service!

Response from the owner: Thank you for your kind words! We’re glad we could get your AC back up and running. Our team worked hard to track down the part and keep you updated throughout the process. We truly appreciate your recommendation and the opportunity to serve you!– The Countryside Team

The team from Countryside showed up early, got right to business and rocked out my new furnace and AC. Professional all through the process, knew what they were doing and wrapped up in a very timely fashion. From quote to intall the experience met was spot on.

Brian Kottke

Couldn’t be more appreciative of the help I received over the phone today in diagnosing and wiring in my new 5 wire thermostat to my 4 wire system. Not having ac with a 2 year old in 90 plus heat all weekend was not going to be fun so thank you so much for all the help!!

Kailey made quick work of our air-conditioning issue, was friendly and took time to explain what happened and what to do to avoid in the future. Exceptional service, no hassle, great prices. They don't make contractors like this anymore.

Response from the owner: Thank you for your kind words about Ryan! All of us at Countryside Refrigeration & Heating truly appreciate your feedback and loyalty.

The employee was there promptly at 8 am and did an excellent job of explaining what was going on for the duct cleaning. Then took extra time to tell me what he found during the cleaning. Then looked at the air conditioning unit. I would certainly call this company if help is needed with any issues with air conditioning system needs work. Very impressed.

Response from the owner: Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review! We’re thrilled to hear you were happy with the duct cleaning service and that our technician took the time to explain everything clearly.

Christine Reinbold

Everything was great! My A/C totally quit on a Sunday evening and needed replacing. I called Monday morning, guys came out later that morning, by Monday evening Zach sent a quote. Tuesday Zach called and scheduled installation Wednesday morning, but the time I got home from work Wednesday, I had a new A/C unit and thermostat! Super fast and really easy to work with! Thanks so much!

Response from the owner: Thank you so much for the great review! We’re so glad we could help get your new A/C installed quickly—especially after it quit on such a hot night. We know how stressful that can be, and it’s great to hear Zach and the team made the whole process fast and easy for you.We truly appreciate you choosing Countryside Refrigeration and Heating, and if you ever need anything in the future, just let us know.

Chris Howe

We had air conditioning "issues," due to a rodent incursion. Called Countryside, asked to be put on their service list (just finished hottest weekend in two years). They got me an appointment the DAY AFTER I called.Service tech Josh called about an hour before the appointed time, said he was ahead of schedule, asked if he could come early. YES, please!Josh stopped in, and was 100% clean/pleasant/polite/professional. He quickly diagnosed the problem, explained the problem to me in layman's terms, and presented me with a couple of options for service.Josh completed the repair quickly, and got us "up and running" in no time! Josh was an absolute pleasure to work with.We've been fortunate to have minimal problems with our HVAC systems over the last twenty years, but I know that CRH has been here at least once.After today's service call, I know that CRH will absolutely be at the top of the list, next time we have a service need.By the way... Josh was finished and gone, fifteen minutes BEFORE the scheduled service call time window. That can't be expected every time, or even predicted... but it was just icing on the cake.We couldn't have asked for better service."Thank You," Countryside Refrigeration and Heating!

Response from the owner: Wow—thank you so much for this incredible review and for taking the time to share such detailed feedback! We’re thrilled to hear Josh was able to help so quickly (especially after that heat wave) and that he delivered the friendly, professional service we always aim for.We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to Josh—he’ll really appreciate knowing his efforts made such a positive impression.It means a lot to us to know we’ve earned your trust for any future service needs. Thank you again for choosing Countryside Refrigeration and Heating!Stay cool,The Countryside Team
