Amana Pricing: Amana products are competitively priced. Every dealer sets their own pricing, but overall you can get a lot for your money with an Amana unit. A recent survey of internet prices showed that you can get an 80 percent AFUE Amana furnace for around $850 while higher efficiency models cost about $1,600, depending on the specific BTUH capacity.
Why Installation is Paramount: We recommend choosing an experienced, quality HVAC technician to install your unit. The unit will only work as well as it is installed, and a poor installation will mean higher energy bills for you and a shorter life for your unit. A good HVAC technician will have the know-how to install the unit and ability to calibrate it to your home’s specific needs so you’re getting the most for your money. If installed correctly, this model will keep your utility bills down with reliable service for 20 years or more.
