Winter-Ready Furnace Swap in Tahoe City

Tahoe City winters are harsh. Snow, cold nights, and long off-seasons put real stress on a furnace. If your unit is aging or failed, you need a swap done before the cold sets in. Fresh Air has served the Tahoe basin since 2009. We handle both propane and natural gas units. Most jobs wrap up in about 48 hours.

Propane or Natural Gas

Many Tahoe City homes run on propane, not piped gas. We are set up to work with both. We match the new unit to your fuel type and home size.

Pre-Season Scheduling

Book early in the fall to lock in your slot. Tahoe crews get busy once the first cold snap hits. We plan around your vacation rental schedule if needed.

Altitude-Ready Units

At over 6,000 feet, a furnace must be sized for thinner air. We pick a unit rated for high elevation so you get full heat output all winter.

What the Swap Includes

  • Old furnace removal and proper disposal.
  • New unit mount and gas or propane hook-up.
  • Duct check and seal per Title-24 code.
  • Placer County permit filing and inspection.
  • Thermostat set-up and final heat test.

Propane at Elevation

Natural gas lines do not reach all parts of Tahoe City. Propane tanks are common here. Propane burns well at elevation, but the unit must be set up right. Fresh Air techs are trained on propane hook-up and safety checks. We also verify the tank pressure and regulator are correct for your new unit.

A full furnace swap in Tahoe City runs $8,000 to $15,000 for most homes. Propane conversions or duct work can add to that. We are CSLB-licensed (#945361) and insured. Milestone billing keeps your cash flow in check.

Full rental turnover is not offered. We do not restock supplies or change linens.
