Replacing a Rosemount furnace costs $4,500–$9,500 installed with us: about $4,500–$6,000 for an 80% model and $6,500–$9,500 for 96–98% AFUE. Gas here comes from Xcel Energy or Minnesota Energy Resources depending on the address. Quotes are written and flat-rate.
Most Rosemount furnace replacements swap one condensing furnace for another. If the old PVC's diameter and length suit the new furnace, it can carry over, but walkout homes on open lots often benefit from moving the termination to a spot the wind doesn't drift. Post-2000 houses are built tight, so a Manual J usually calls for a smaller furnace than the builder installed, and a two-stage or modulating model runs longer, gentler cycles in them. The air exchanger ties into the ductwork and sometimes into the furnace controls, and it needs to be reconnected and rebalanced after the swap.
Older houses along Highway 3 downtown and some 1980s homes may still have an 80% furnace sharing a chimney with the water heater, which changes the venting plan. On rural properties, propane furnaces pair well with a heat pump. Electric service comes from Xcel Energy or Dakota Electric Association. The city's mechanical permit is normally part of a replacement.

What moves the quote in Rosemount: venting changes on a switch to a condensing furnace, a liner for a water heater left alone in the chimney, and ductwork and returns. See the furnace replacement cost guide.
Gas comes from Xcel Energy or Minnesota Energy Resources, and each runs its own rebates for high-efficiency furnaces and boilers. Ask us which rebates apply when we quote. Rebate programs change every year, so check the utility's current terms before you buy.

Often. A heat pump heats efficiently through the mild part of the season, and the propane furnace takes over in real cold, so the tank lasts longer. Whether it pays depends on your propane price and electric rate. If Dakota Electric serves you, its Energy Wise rebates include first-time dual-fuel program enrollment; if Xcel serves you, it has its own heat pump rebates. Some rebates require a registered contractor, so ask before you sign.
Usually, yes. On open lots the wind drifts snow against a side-wall termination, so we look for a sheltered side or a higher wall, or a roof termination if the manual allows it. The new furnace's installation manual sets the maximum pipe length and the clearances from grade, windows and the gas meter, and a longer run adds cost. We plan the route on the quote visit and put it in the written price.
