When an Edmonds furnace is due for replacement
Plenty of Edmonds furnaces were installed when the house was last remodeled and are now 20 or more years old. Watch for these:
- A cracked heat exchanger, failed inducer or control board on a unit older than about 15 years. At that age a big repair is rarely money well spent.
- An electric furnace that drives winter Snohomish PUD bills far above summer ones.
- Cold rooms at the far end of the house, constant cycling, or a blower that runs loud.
- Soot near the burners, a lazy yellow flame or a carbon monoxide alarm. If you smell gas, leave the house and call PSE at 1-888-225-5773.
If a fix is the better deal, our furnace repair team will say so.
Gas, electric or heat pump: comparing options for an Edmonds home
| If your home has | Options we price | Things to weigh |
|---|---|---|
| A gas furnace on PSE | New 95%+ AFUE gas furnace, or dual fuel | Dual fuel adds cooling and lowers gas use, and PSE pays $1,500 toward the heat pump. |
| An electric furnace | Ducted heat pump with electric backup | Usually much cheaper to run than another electric furnace, and eligible for the Snohomish PUD rebate. |
| An old heat pump and air handler | Variable-speed heat pump and new air handler | Steadier heat in cold snaps, quieter, better filtration. |
| Gas but want to go electric | Gas to heat pump conversion | May need a panel check and a new circuit for the outdoor unit and backup heat. |
What we check before installing a furnace in Edmonds
- Sizing: a Manual J load calculation using your home's square footage, insulation, windows and air leakage.
- Venting and gas: checking the flue or planning a new PVC vent, and confirming the gas line can carry the new furnace.
- Ducts and air flow: checking the ductwork, return air and filter, because a new furnace on leaky or undersized ducts will not deliver its rated comfort.
- Controls: a thermostat set up for the new system, including heat pump lockout settings on dual fuel systems.
- Permit and inspection: mechanical permits in Edmonds are issued by the City of Edmonds Development Services department. We file the permit and schedule the inspection.

Rebates for a new furnace or heat pump in Edmonds
Like most of south Snohomish County, Edmonds buys natural gas from Puget Sound Energy and power from Snohomish County PUD. Neither pays a rebate on a gas furnace by itself (as of October 2026). Heat pumps are a different story:
| Program | Amount | Who qualifies |
|---|---|---|
| PSE hybrid heat pump | $1,500 | PSE gas customers adding a ducted heat pump to a gas furnace, installed by a PSE Trade Ally |
| PSE Efficiency Boost | $2,400 | Income-qualified PSE customers, on top of the hybrid rebate |
| PSE moderate-income fuel switch | $4,000 | Income-qualified PSE gas customers replacing gas heat with a heat pump |
| Snohomish PUD ducted heat pump | $1,800 (conversion) or $2,500 (inverter-driven) | Homes heated mainly by electricity, installed by a PUD Trade Ally |
Home Comfort Alliance is an approved contractor for PSE and Snohomish PUD, and we handle the PSE rebate paperwork for you. The federal 25C tax credit ended for equipment installed after December 31, 2025. See all rebates.

A recent Edmonds heating job
In September we replaced the heating system in an all-electric Edmonds home in the 98026 ZIP code. The homeowner's old air handler and heat pump were at the end of their life. We installed a 2-ton Lennox EL18KSLV variable-speed heat pump with a new air handler, a 10 kW electric heat kit for backup and a 4-inch media filter, pulled the permits, and handled the Snohomish PUD heat pump rebate.
It was a heat pump job rather than a gas furnace, which is common in Edmonds: many homes here heat with electricity, and a heat pump with electric backup usually costs less to run than an electric furnace.

Edmonds homes: what we plan for
Many Edmonds homes date from the 1950s to the 1970s, with furnaces in basements, garages, crawlspaces or attics, and view homes on steep lots where getting equipment in takes planning. Older homes often have undersized return air or ducts that need sealing, and some still vent an 80% furnace through a masonry chimney that needs a liner.
Edmonds sits near the water, so outdoor heat pump units on dual fuel systems get placed and mounted with salt air and drainage in mind. We check all of this at the estimate, before we price the job.

Edmonds furnace replacement questions
How much does a new furnace cost in Edmonds?
It depends on the furnace type and efficiency, venting, gas and duct work and where it is installed. Our free instant quote tool gives a price range in about 30 seconds, and a free in-home estimate gives you a written, upfront price.
Do I need a permit to replace a furnace in Edmonds?
Yes. Mechanical permits in Edmonds are issued by the City of Edmonds Development Services department. We pull the required permits for every installation and schedule the inspection.
Who are the utilities in Edmonds?
Natural gas comes from Puget Sound Energy and electricity from Snohomish County PUD, so the rebates you qualify for depend on how your home is heated.
Are there rebates for a new furnace in Edmonds?
As of October 2026, neither PSE nor Snohomish PUD offers a rebate for a gas furnace on its own. PSE pays $1,500 for adding a ducted heat pump to a gas furnace, and Snohomish PUD pays $1,800 or $2,500 for a ducted heat pump in an electrically heated home.
My Edmonds home has an electric furnace. Should I replace it with another one?
Usually a ducted heat pump with electric backup is the better choice: it heats for less, adds cooling and qualifies for the Snohomish PUD rebate. We price both options at the estimate.
Can you replace a furnace in a crawlspace or attic?
Yes. We install furnaces and air handlers in basements, garages, closets, crawlspaces and attics, and check access, venting and condensate drainage before we quote.
What size furnace does my home need?
The right size comes from a room-by-room load calculation (ACCA Manual J), not from the size of the old furnace. Oversized furnaces short cycle, heat unevenly and wear out sooner.
How long does a furnace last?
Most gas furnaces last about 15 to 20 years with yearly maintenance. A furnace tune-up is $230, or $180 for Home Comfort Club members.
Is there a warranty on a new furnace?
New installations come with a 3-year Comfort Shield labor warranty, kept active with yearly maintenance, and first-year maintenance is included.
Can I finance a new furnace?
Yes. Financing through Salal Credit Union or Synchrony, with low monthly payment plans starting at $179/month* and 0% interest options for qualifying customers.
