Always remember that there is a payback period with any furnace you purchase, or, a return on your investment. The more efficient the furnace is, the sooner you make your money back in utility and repair savings. In addition, the way your furnace is installed has a huge impact on the way it operates.

Our technicians will first thoroughly diagnose your home prior to replacing your furnace; examining airflow through your ducts, measuring heat loss through windows and the attic, and determining the correct sizing of the unit you require are only some of the measures we take. For example, we may discover that heat loss in your home is higher than normal so we will suggest either sealing your windows and insulating the attic to avoid purchasing a larger unit that would compensate for the heat loss.

Sizing your furnace is a factor many technicians and homeowners don’t appreciate and it involves more than just the square footage of your home. Heat loss, airflow, ventilation, duct design, and even having a skylight in your home will affect the size of the furnace required to evenly and efficiently distribute hot and cold air through your home. Too small a furnace and it will run constantly trying to raise your home’s temperature, all the while burning away money in electricity and gas. Too large a furnace and you will have cold spots in your home and inconsistent heat. In most cases, the quality of installation is more important than the specific furnace itself.
