I'm looking for some furnace advice
Can someone help me determine if it's worth replacing my furnace? I have a 14 year old Carrier 93 2 stage furnace that is still going strong but I just completed the Home Energy Conservation Program pre-audit and plan on replacing my water heater with a new tankless water heater along with a skylight. My current rebate will likely be $500 for the tankless water heater and $80 for my skylight. If I replace the furnace, it will increase the rebate by $1000 (furnace) + $250 (ECM motor) + $250 (bonus for doing 3 upgrades with Home Energy Conservation Program). So I'm basically saving $1500 on the furnace. Additionally, the quote I received includes a 5% discount on both the furnace and water heater if I get both done at the same time. One of the quotes I'm looking at is:
Bosch T9800 SE 199: $4000 (after taxes and rebates)
Bosch T9800 SE 199 + York TM9V: $7500 (after taxes and rebates)
Furnace without rebates is being listed at $5500 (after taxes)
Would you consider replacing the furnace given its age to take advantage of the rebates or would you just keep the furnace until it dies and then replace it with whatever rebates are available at that time (or potentially no rebates at all)?
Thanks for your feedback! Let me know if I should include more details.
