There’s no shortage of choice when it comes to choosing a furnace stand manufacturer, but not all furnace stands are created equal. Here are six reasons why installers and insurers love our furnace stands.


A Furnace Stand Built to Last

Most furnace stands are cheaply-built, but at Tradesman, we believe that quality and innovation carry the day. Where most furnace stands are made to be replaced, we believe they should be made to last. Made of 24GA galvanized steel and 100% laser cut for accuracy, Tradesman furnace stands are a cut above the rest.

Quick to Install

At Tradesman, we’re always looking for ways to transcend traditional design to create a product that’s more efficient. That’s why we’ve designed our furnace stands with an elbow and filter rack built in. With both these parts already in place by the time you receive the product, you can reduce your install time to just one hour. That means less labour time and the ability to keep more money in your pocket!

A Furnace Stand Design That Saves You Money and Sets You Apart

Tradesman furnace stands are designed to fit both 1” and 5” filters. This means that you can order just the one product! Without the need to stock both sizes, you save on valuable warehouse space because there’s no need to stock both sizes. Because of the 2-in-1 design, you can also provide more options to home owners. The ability to choose could set you apart from your competition, leading to more potential customers!

Less Liable to Water Damage

When an inch of water in a furnace can mean replacement, the best you can do is hope that it never takes any water damage in its lifetime. But at Tradesman, we know we can do better. That’s why we take care of that worry by raising the furnace up so that it sits off the floor, making it less susceptible to water damage. Our furnace stands can be raised up to 14 inches off the ground, keeping it safe from the effects of flooding! This saves insurance companies money as the furnace stand is kept safer for longer.

Fast Replacements for Piece-work Models

Sometimes damage does happen anyway. When it does, it often means having to replace the entire furnace unit. This isn’t just time-consuming, but it’s also hurtful to our environment. Some insurance companies work with installation businesses with a piece-work model. When working with a fixed price for each installation or replacement, less time spent means more profit (for the installer or the insurer). Instead of replacing the entire furnace, Tradesman furnace stands are a separate piece that can be replaced in the event of damage. That means more efficiency and less waste!

Tradesman Furnace Stands Are Made for Easy Install

Say goodbye to cutting holes in the side of the furnace! The Tradesman furnace stand is designed so that the stand draws return air from the bottom. We make things easy with the ability to accommodate 8, 10, or 12 inch wide return air ducts! This gives you more flexibility when installing a furnace stand. Looking for something specific? We also have options for multiple filter widths.


For over 30 years, Tradesman has been a trusted name in manufacturing high-quality HVAC products. We believe that our product quality speaks for itself, but more than that, we believe that our drive to grow is one of the reasons we are where we are today. Whether you’re an insurance provider, installer, or contractor, we know we have the products that will make your work more efficient and more cost-effective.
