Starting January 1, 2026, Colorado will introduce new standards for gas furnaces to help reduce emissions and improve air quality. While this change affects which furnaces can be sold and installed moving forward, most homeowners won’t feel an immediate impact.
The good news? There will still be plenty of approved furnace inventory available after the new rules take effect, giving Denver–Boulder area homeowners time and flexibility to plan.
If your furnace is aging or you’re considering a replacement in the next year or two, now is a great time to learn your options and plan ahead — without pressure.

Colorado Furnace Update: What Homeowners Should Know About the 2026 Law
❄️ Winter HVAC Preparation Steps
Professional Maintenance: Schedule a furnace inspection and tune-up to check for gas leaks, clean burners, and ensure proper venting.
Air Filter Replacement: Replace filters every 1-3 months to maintain airflow and system efficiency.
Clear Outdoor Units: Remove leaves, snow, and debris from around the heat pump or AC unit to prevent restricted airflow.
Seal and Insulate: Add weatherstripping to doors and windows, and check attic/basement insulation to prevent heat loss.
Vent Maintenance: Ensure all supply and return vents are open and unobstructed by furniture or curtains.
Thermostat Management: Use a smart or programmable thermostat to lower temperatures when sleeping or away (ideally 17-19°C or 62-66°F at night).
Safety Checks: Test smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, especially if using a gas furnace or fireplace.
Exposed Pipe Protection: Insulate exterior water lines and pipes near the HVAC system to prevent freezing.
Cover the Unit: Consider using a specialized cover for outdoor units to protect them from falling ice and debris.
These measures reduce energy strain, lower heating bills, and prevent costly, last-minute emergency repairs.
