We offer both electric and fuel-burning systems for furnace replacement. Typically, the most affordable option is compatible with whichever system already have. The exception is if you’ve gained access to a natural gas line since your last furnace installation. In that case, we can install the necessary connections for you. Propane and fuel oil are the standard alternatives to natural gas. Electric is an option, but often more expensive to run. In that case, you may want to consider a heat pump.
Sizing is an integral aspect of furnace replacement. The industry measures furnace heating output in British thermal units (BTUs). To determine how many BTUs you need, we’ll perform a load calculation. That calculation will account for your home’s cubic footage and factor in your local climate, location, and building envelope.
You’ll also want to consider energy efficiency, which we measure with annual fuel utilization efficiency. A furnace rated AFUE 80 converts 80% of the fuel it burns into heat. The higher that number, the more cost-effective the system will be. What the industry calls mid-efficiency systems are generally in the 80-89 range. High-efficiency systems have a rating of 90 and up. Higher-efficiency furnaces are more likely to have the ENERGY STAR label. That certification may make you eligible for rebates and tax credits.
What makes a furnace a high-efficiency model? There are many components a heater can have that help save energy. Consider that traditional fuel-burning furnaces lose heat through the gases they vent. There are also models with condensing systems that extract that heat before venting.
Consider also that traditional furnaces run at a steady speed, which is inefficient. Some of the newer furnaces have a low and high setting or can ramp up and down in finer increments. Some systems also modulate how much fuel they burn to maximize efficiency.
Monitor for the signs it’s time to replace your old furnace:
Uneven heating
Rising energy costs
Loud and unusual noises
System older than 15 years
Diminished indoor air quality
