They are also called gas packs or gas\/electric packs or packed units.<\/p>\n This Costimate provides comprehensive pricing details, cost factors, costs from other estimate sites and prices supplied by homeowners that have had a gas pack installed. Being prepared is important when it comes to replacement of a high cost item like HVAC. Learn more about the most expensive home repairs, as well as how much to budget for unplanned home expenses.<\/p>\n Gas packaged units are typically installed where basements and crawl spaces aren\u2019t common and in homes with limited space for equipment. They\u2019re not as efficient as split system furnaces and central air conditioners and all components are subject to the elements.\u00a0Gas pack cost for the equipment is lower than buying a separate AC and furnace. However, since they aren\u2019t as efficient, operating costs are higher.<\/p>\n All price factors are explained on this page, so you\u2019ll have a good ballpark estimate of what a gas packaged unit for your home should cost.<\/p>\n System Price Factors<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Whether your cost will be closer to $4K or to $10K will depend on these factors.<\/p>\n Retail Cost Range<\/span> (Gas Package Unit Only)<\/strong><\/p>\n Total cost with installation and extras are listed in the top table. This section breaks down equipment costs to show how efficiency and performance affect cost.<\/p>\n Cost of Installation Supplies<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n In a direct replacement, it is possible that some of the old supplies are usable. However, most installations require at least some of this material. Discuss the details with your contractor.<\/p>\n The table at the top gives total costs for the furnace, supplies and labor. This section and the next gives itemized costs you might be interested in having.<\/p>\n You\u2019ll need a mechanical permit for the installation of a gas pack. If wiring is installed, an electrical permit might be needed too. Permits include inspections to ensure the work is done safely and according to local code.<\/p>\n Installation Labor Factors<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n The labor cost to install a gas packaged unit starts at about $1,250 for ground installation and can cost more than $3,000 for rooftop installation.<\/p>\n The labor cost for your project will be determined by these factors:<\/p>\n Installation Time<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Gas packaged units are easier to install than split systems, but there are a few considerations before doing it yourself.<\/p>\n First, DIY installation voids your warranty. Manufacturers don\u2019t want the risk of covering problems on equipment installed by non-professionals. For that reason alone, we recommend pro installation. Since the entire job is a major investment \u2013 one of the\u00a010 most expensive home repairs\u00a0\u2013 it\u2019s important to do it properly.<\/p>\n Secondly, rooftop installations are inherently dangerous. You also accept the risk should the unit, your home or property be damaged. We recommend pro installation of rooftop HVAC equipment.<\/p>\n While we don\u2019t recommend this, if you\u2019re handy and the unit is on the ground, you might be able to remove the old unit and set the new unit. Then, hire an HVAC pro to hook up the gas pack, tune and test it and sign off on the installation.\u00a0Most busy contractors want the whole job or nothing, but if you have a relationship with an HVAC pro or it\u2019s the slow season, you might find one willing to work with you.<\/p>\n What do you think?
