American Standard makes several levels of furnace to fit any budget and performance demands you may have.  The American Standard Gold ZM Freedom 95 gas furnaces offers high efficiency and reliable, comfortable heating.  We appreciate Eugene in Schenectady, New York sharing his American Standard Gold ZM Freedom 95 Comfort-R Variable-Speed furnace price with the rest of us in this installment of HVAC prices for you to consider.

“When I shopped last fall for a new furnace I looked for a good value – a balance of quality heating, high efficiency and a good price.  I looked at gas furnace prices and specs from 4 different contractors and chose the American Standard Gold ZM Freedom 95.  Here’s basically what the brochure lists for its details:

• It’s 96.7% efficient.  That’s qualifies for the federal energy tax credit.
• High efficiency operation reduces greenhouse gases.
• 2-stage heating runs at 65% to maintain even heating and 100% when temperature boosts are required.
• Variable speed fan motor produces even heating throughout the home along with quieter operation.
• Comfort-R feature reduces humidity in warm weather.
• Insulated cabinet is made from heavy-duty steel.
• Units offered in various capacities: 58K Btu, 76K Btu, 95K Btu and 115K Btu, and 3, 4 and 5 ton models.

We had a 95,000 Btu furnace installed in our 1,870 square foot home.  Here is our price:

American Standard Gold ZM 95,000 Btu / 4 ton gas furnace, $2,489

Installation: $1,950.

Total: $4,439

The installers said the process was very straightforward and easy, with a high efficiency furnace being cheaper to install because the venting isn’t as extensive.  It took them about 4 hours to complete.

After 3 months of cold-weather operation our natural gas bill is down by about a 25% average over the last few winters.”

The American Standard Gold ZM Freedom 95 offers ultra-high efficiency at a very affordable price, as Eugene’s letter reveals.  If you opt for this furnace, or any quality gas furnace, maximize your efficiency by having it installed by a qualified contractor who is familiar with the brand.  You’ll make the most of your investment and get the performance you paid for in the years ahead.  Keep it well maintained with periodic cleaning and repair and this furnace should last for 15-20 years.
