The $5,000 HVAC rule is a quick, repair-or-replace guideline we use in the field: multiply the system’s age by the repair cost. If the total is around $5,000 or more, replacement is usually the smarter long-term move—especially on older furnaces or AC units. Our technicians are always here to help you weigh your options and make smart, cost-effective decisions for your home.

FAQs
Heating Services - Frequently Asked Questions
-
What is the $5,000 rule for HVAC?
-
-
What is the new Colorado furnace law?
-
Colorado’s newer rules mainly tighten efficiency and emissions standards for new equipment and installations. In practice, it means you may not be able to replace an old unit with the same low-efficiency model, and some homes may need venting or code updates during a swap. We’ll walk you through what aspects, if any, apply to your home upfront, so there are no surprises.
-
What brand of HVAC lasts the longest?
-
No brand lasts long without good design, sizing, and installation. While we carry some of the highest-quality HVAC brands, we still see the best longevity from systems that are properly matched to the home, installed cleanly, and maintained yearly. In short, brand matters, but workmanship matters more.
-
Is there a tax credit for HVAC in 2026?
-
Most homeowners can still qualify for federal tax credits for high-efficiency heat pumps and certain high-efficiency HVAC upgrades, depending on the equipment ratings and your situation. Applewood’s here to help you pick qualifying equipment and provide the documentation you’ll need for filing.

ZACK did a great job... he spotted water in my furnace and traced it to a clogged pipe. He then checked my air conditioner and found I needed a new igniter. My old one was inefficient, he got everything up and running again and I now have air conditioning upstairs which I didn't have before. I am thrilled and would hire Applewood again in a New York minute!

Great service. My AC and Heat were not working and they had a technician out within 2 hours. Zach was very friendly and professional, did not try to upsell me on anything and explained everything, making sure I could describe the issue back. Zach has been to my house previously for my HVAC repairs and he is wonderful. Highly recommend!

We have a very complicated HVAC system at our property and this is the only company and technician that we have used that understands it. I'm very grateful to have found them.
