Countryside Refrigeration & Heating technician completing a professional furnace installation to ensure safe, efficient home heating.

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 Whether you’re building new, replacing an outdated system, or upgrading to a more efficient model, our team provides the guidance and expertise needed to get the job done right.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.

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. Stay cool and thanks again!-The Countryside Team

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

I really like Countryside!! I've always had excellent experiences in the past. The technicians are very knowledgeable and professional! I liked Ethan from the minute we chatted on the phone. Extremely polite and seemed so positive! I had a wonderful feeling about him. Felt bad he had to come help us on a weekend but he assured us it was no problem whatsoever. I highly recommend Ethan and Countryside in general. They will get the job done right the first time! 5 stars from us! Thank you Countryside!! Keep up the excellent work!

Taylor Rudolph

I have to start off by saying how great of a guy Ryan truly is. My girlfriend and I just recently purchased our first home(so it’s all new to us) but the entire time on the phone with Ryan he made sure that I was comfortable and that he would get the situation taken care of. Ryan’s customer service is truly top tier, he’s understanding and a very honest guy. I would give 10 stars if I could! He had a guy come out the next morning (Ethan) and took care of us and was such a great experience. Countryside Refrigeration & Heating is a wonderful company to do business with.

Response from the owner: Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that you had such a positive experience with Ryan and Ethan. At Countryside Refrigeration & Heating, we strive to provide the best service possible, and it’s fantastic to know we could help make your first home purchase experience even better. We will be sure to let Ryan and Eythan know how their service helped you. All of us at Countryside truly appreciate your trust and your recommendation.
