"I found Skovron Mechanical Services to be very knowledgable. They were friendly mannered. They performed their job well and did not add onto the job what was not needed. Since the a/c did not need a recharge, they did not charge for it. They were quick to explain everything to us and deducted what was not needed. They showed high respect for my aged old mother and did not try to take advantage of her old age like some companies do. It was a pleasure doing business with them. I highly recommend them to others!"

"Sunrise Heating and Cooling did an excellent job installing my new Rinnai tankless water heater/boiler. From start to finish, the experience was smooth and professional. The crew was knowledgeable, punctual, and took the time to explain the system and answer all of my questions. The installation was clean, efficient, and clearly done with attention to detail. Everything works perfectly, and I couldn?t be happier with the upgrade. It?s clear they take pride in their work. If you?re looking for reliable, honest, and high-quality service, I highly recommend Sunrise Heating and Cooling."

"Techs were very nice. Took time to put mats down on my carpets to keep them clean. Explained how to operate the heat pump and gave suggestions on how to make it function most efficiently. Everything was cleaned up before they left, they even vacuumed! So glad I went with LaPlante for my heat pump! Bev"

"I am a big fan of Heritage. We needed to replace our broken furnace and I got quotes from five different HVAC companies, all of which had many 5-star reviews. Heritage was the best, by far, for a few reasons: Dexter, the HVAC project manager from Heritage, was professional and patient. He answered all of my questions, applied no sales pressure, helped me customize the job to my budget and needs, and even brought us space heaters to keep the house warm since we had no heat in winter. Heritage was one of only two companies to actually take detailed measurements of my home before recommending a furnace size and submitting an estimate. Three of the companies just eye-balled it and recommended furnaces that were twice the size of what Heritage recommended. Some of them told me I had to replace my entire heating and cooling system or I would have major problems (which Dexter debunked). If an HVAC project manager does not bother to measure your house before recommending a furnace size, you should be concerned. Dexter helped me every step of the way with the HEAT loan and furnace rebate process. Dexter worked around my busy work schedule and communicated in person, phone, email, and text, depending on what was best for my workday. After the furnace was installed, the house got uncomfortably dry and we realized we needed to add a whole-house humidifier (which Dexter had recommended originally). Heritage was able to come out the morning after we called and put in a humidifier and the house was comfortable within a day. The Heritage install and service guys (Fran, Bob) were professional, patient, and courteous from start to finish. The installation site was clean and well-labeled. They checked in with me and explained important items along the way. The Heritage office staff are always reachable and helpful with any scheduling, billing, or follow-up questions. The only drawback is they are definitely a premium brand and charge on the higher end for their work. They quoted higher than any of the other four companies. That said, I was able to negotiate the price and I was happy to pay a little extra for a job well done, a strong warranty, and professional service. Honestly, Heritage won me over and I will only use them in the future for my HVAC needs. They were transparent and professional and I never felt like I was getting hustled (unlike a few other big-name brands). Now I recommend Heritage to everyone I know."

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in Barrington, NH

Converting from an oil furnace to an electric furnace isn't a simple swap—the oil system needs to be completely removed before installing the electric furnace. You'll need a full electric system installation, but you might be able to reuse existing ductwork if it's up to current safety standards. You’ll need to budget for a new electric furnace installation, which costs between $1,800 and $6,200, including professional removal, proper disposal, and safe installation of the new system.

Electric furnaces are 100% efficient at converting electricity into heat. However, some of that heat can be lost as it travels through your home's ductwork or escapes through poorly insulated areas. That's why regular duct maintenance and proper home insulation are important to maximize your furnace's efficiency and reduce heat loss, ensuring consistent warmth and lower energy costs.

With proper maintenance, an electric furnace can last anywhere from 20 to 30 years, outlasting the average gas furnace's lifespan of 15 to 20 years. To keep your electric furnace running efficiently, schedule regular cleanings, tighten connections, and have inspections done before winter arrives. With routine maintenance, you’ll ensure consistent, safe heating for years to come.

The size of the electric furnace you need depends on factors like your home's square footage, climate, and insulation quality. As a general guideline, those who live in warmer climates should multiply their square footage by 30 to 35 BTUs, while those in cooler areas should multiply it by 50 to 60 BTUs.

Consulting with an HVAC professional can help you determine the exact size that's right for your home.

An electric furnace works by converting electricity into heat using high-resistance heating elements. A blower then pushes the warm air through your home's ductwork, distributing heat evenly throughout your space. Since there's no combustion involved, electric furnaces eliminate the risks associated with gas furnaces and provide consistent, reliable heating when properly installed.

An electric furnace uses between 40 and 80 kilowatts per day to heat your home. The exact amount it uses depends on factors like your home's size, insulation, and overall energy requirements. Larger homes or those with poor insulation use more energy than smaller, well-insulated spaces. A professional furnace assessment can help confirm the ideal unit size for your needs.
