Default switch a home from electric heating to forced air

What is a typical cost to switch an old home form electric baseboards
to forced air furnace? $10k? 5 bedroom, 1 bathroom house.

TIA,

Ian

How big is a box?
How big is a cloud.

One story? Two or more stories? Room for ducts? Unless someone can see
the house and construction, it is impossible to say.

Lots of variables there. Get a few quotes... Its free
to do so and will you an idea of costs.

While the furnace is the cheapest part of the deal, the
duct work is going to cost some bucks.

I would also look into if your local utility companies offer
some rebates on converting systems. It may not be
much but every little bit helps.

Look into spending a high efficency unit too, a little more
money now but at todays fuel prices will payback real soon.
