Why Brand Selection Matters — and Why the Installer Matters Even More
Repeatable Installation = Reliable Results
Because we install American Standard furnaces every day, our technicians know the exact materials and setup needed—supply/return sizing, gas piping and regulators, venting, condensate management, electrical, filtration, and controls. This familiarity removes guesswork, speeds up install time, and delivers the same high‑quality result on every job.
AMPLY Load Measuring + Code Compliance
Our AMPLY process accurately measures your home’s heat‑loss, duct capacity, and real‑world airflow needs. We size the furnace and design the duct system to meet code and manufacturer requirements, helping your system run quieter and more efficiently with fewer callbacks over its lifetime.
Multiple Licensed Divisions = One Turnkey Team
Homestead Comfort’s licensed divisions handle all gas piping (natural gas or propane), regulators, shutoffs, pressure testing, and permits. That means one accountable installer from design to final inspection—no coordination headaches for you.
Great Brands Installed Well = Strong Warranty Outcomes
American Standard offers registered limited parts warranties up to 10 years (with timely product registration), and lifetime heat‑exchanger coverage on many S‑Series models when registered. Correct sizing, installation, and maintenance help you get the full benefit of that coverage.

What You Get with a Homestead Comfort Installation
Right‑Sized, Code‑Perfect Design
We perform AMPLY load calculations, assess ductwork and static pressure, and select the right staging/airflow profile (single, two‑stage, or modulating) to match your home. Then we place, vent, and wire the furnace to manufacturer specs, local code, and best practices—protecting both performance and warranty.

We set blower profiles, verify temperature rise, commission communicating or conventional thermostats, and confirm condensate routing—so heating is even, quiet, and reliable from day one. AccuLink™‑enabled controls can be configured for remote monitoring and service alerts.
