New Brighton homeowners replacing a furnace in 2026 typically pay $2,700–$4,700 for a complete gas furnace installation. New Brighton is a compact Ramsey County suburb between Minneapolis and St. Paul, with a housing stock primarily from the 1950s–1980s. Its relatively smaller homes — most running 1,000–2,000 sq ft — make it one of the more affordable furnace replacement markets in the metro. Furnace Direct serves Ramsey County with factory-direct Goodman pricing.
