    Damn that ain’t cheap. What’s the expected savings per year in reduced gas/hydro?

    Edit - how quick is it expected to pay itself off

      I’m not sure, likely somewhere between 5-7 years.

      We wouldn’t have done it if our furnace wasn’t shot. As a plus our A/C leaked it’s freon in the winter, so replacing it was an improvement as well.
