Why homeowners here call us for replacement quotes

Clear pricing, no surprises

We look at your home and your system first, then give you straightforward pricing you can compare. Transparent pricing is how we work.

Sized right for your home

We run a manual J load calculation. An oversized system short-cycles and an undersized one struggles, so the numbers matter more than a rule of thumb.

You pick the efficiency level

Compare 80% to 98% AFUE furnaces and 16+, 18+ or 20+ SEER2 cooling, plus single-stage, two-stage or modulating equipment.

Financing through approved partners

Ask about financing when we quote so you can weigh the monthly cost against your old system's repair bills and energy use.

Certified installers

NATE-certified and EPA 608 certified technicians handle the gas, venting, electrical and refrigerant work, then commission and test the system.

24/7 help while you decide

If your furnace or AC quits before the new one is in, we answer emergency calls day or night, including weekends and holidays.

What goes into your furnace and AC replacement cost

No two homes price out the same. Your cost depends on the heating and cooling load of your home, the efficiency and staging you choose, and the work around the equipment: ductwork, gas line, venting, electrical and condensate. We check all of it before we quote so the number you get is the number for your house.

We replace furnaces and complete systems for homeowners, property managers and small businesses across Bryan, College Station and the Brazos Valley. Old equipment is removed and disposed of, the new system is commissioned with combustion analysis, and your manufacturer warranty is registered.

  • Manual J load calculation plus manual D and manual S sizing for full system work
  • Gas, electric and high-efficiency condensing furnaces from 80% to 98% AFUE
  • Single-stage, two-stage and modulating furnace options
  • 16+, 18+ and 20+ SEER2 and variable-speed cooling and heat pump options
  • Brands installed include Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Goodman, Rheem, York, Bryant, American Standard, Amana and Heil
  • Ductwork inspection and modification for proper airflow and static pressure
  • Gas line, electrical and venting reconfiguration (PVC, B-vent or direct-vent) where the new unit requires it
  • Thermostat setup and smart-home integration with Nest, Ecobee or Honeywell
  • Old unit removal, safe disposal, commissioning, combustion analysis and warranty registration

Local homeowners on their new systems

“I recently had to do a full HVAC replacement. I got quotes locally in the BCS area and from Houston. Central Air & Refrigeration came out the next day. Alex was very straightforward and didn’t try to oversell anything to me. I had a minor issue after install and again the very next day Alex was back and remedied the issue fast. He even checked back in a few days later to make sure everything was still working great. 10/10 on service. I would highly recommend them to anyone!”

“Central Air and Refrigeration installed a new furnace in our home, and the experience was top-notch from start to finish. The team was on time, answered all our questions, and left the place spotless. We've noticed a big difference in efficiency already!.”
Jessica M.{ "role": "Homeowner" }
“I have used this service for many years. They are dependable and honest. They arrive on time and provide excellent service. This past summer my unit went out. If you live in south Texas, you will remember how very hot it was and there was no rain. I was so very grateful for the employees of Central Texas Air. I know nothing about these systems, and told them. They explained the differences in a 3 vs 4 ton and the size needed for the house of my size. They quickly got the new system in and installed. They also told me about the City of College Station rebate program. I looked into the program, submitted the documents, and received the rebate. I highly recommend this company.”

Frequently asked questions

What does furnace and AC replacement cost?

It depends on your home. The main drivers are the size your home needs, the efficiency you choose (80% to 98% AFUE furnaces, 16+ to 20+ SEER2 cooling), single-stage versus two-stage or modulating equipment, and any ductwork, gas line, venting or electrical work. We assess your home first, then give you clear pricing to compare.

Do I have to replace the furnace and AC at the same time?

No. We can quote the furnace on its own, the cooling on its own, or both as a matched system. Replacing both together can simplify ductwork, thermostat and refrigerant line work, and we will show you each option side by side.

Is financing available?

Yes. Financing is available through approved partners. Ask about it when we go over your quote so you can compare the monthly cost with what you are spending on repairs and energy now.

Do you handle gas furnace replacement near me?

We serve Bryan and College Station plus the surrounding Brazos Valley, including Brazos County, the Texas A&M area, Hearne, Caldwell, Navasota and Madisonville. Send your ZIP code and we will confirm.

What if my furnace fails before the new one is installed?

We offer 24/7 emergency furnace and HVAC repair, including evenings, weekends and holidays. Our trucks carry common parts, and we can set up temporary heat when a permanent repair has to wait.

Is it better to repair or replace my old system?

We look at the age, repair history, efficiency and safety status of your equipment, including a heat exchanger check on furnaces. If a repair makes more sense, we will tell you. If it has failed a safety inspection or repair costs have passed the point of value, we will show you replacement options.
