Downsize Furnace?

I would get at least 3 and preferably 5 estimates and quotes, then
compare. Did he measure your entire home and do a heat loss calculation?
since he advocated downsizing the hot water tank I would question his
other recomendations
you better off using outside air for combustion, old houses already
exchange air enough and besides certain home chemicals have caused
furnace heat exchanger failures in the past. everything I have seen
says outside cold air, is more dense and better.
how long has he been in business? buy a furnace ONLY with a lifetime
heat exchanger warranty and at least 10 year parts and labor for
everything else.
are you buying a 2 speed furnace? they run on low speed in moderate
temps, then step up for more demanding situations like zero days.
slightly more expensive, but selling point if your moving
Take the advice above and then use your own judgment!
