The motor on our furnace died last night. It burned out .. electrical fire smell through ducts and some smoke. I had to call 911 at 5:30am cause I didn't know what it was. Lots of police and fire people showed up, but not with the sirens on.
Anyways, everyone is safe and all so that's all good.
PSEG was called and the guy said we need to replace the whole furnace (and not just the motor) cause it's old and it's cracking and we could die from carbon monoxide. I am not very fond of dying in my sleep (until I am slightly older) and I obviously don't want to take any chances here.
The guy said roughly $5000-6000 to replace .. he will give an estimate tomorrow. Labor is free because we have some kind of plan with them.
The furnace is 175,000 input BTU, 135,000 output BTU SnyderGeneral. Does the cost sound about right?
