"I have had Maynor maintaining my heat, air and hot water heater for 18 months now. Communication is great and the technicians explain what & why they are doing as they go. We just had our systems checked by Matthew J. He was very pleasant and thorough. I have recommended Maynor to my neighbors and friends."

"Worked until late late into the the evening the prior evening trying to install my ecobee voice thermostat. Wrong, and missing tools. Do with 30 degrees outside, and an unhappy wife inside. I decide to try again thenext day. Called for help, left VM around lunch time. Craig called back to say he would try to get by before end of daybut, it is late, and he is on the other side of Raleigh. (New Year's Eve Tomorrow) Cold again tonight. Craig calls later, on his way, after much tribulation, gets the thermostat working, and I offer to program so that he can go home to his family. He refuses, until the job is finished, and working properly. A few bumps in the programming, so glad he stayed around! Excellent Customer Service. I am so grateful. About 30 hours later, and the system is performing beautifully."

"I had them come in a put in a new HVAC system which works very well and is very efficient. It cut my bill down. Then I got them to come and put in a new Generac Generator and that was done very well, and it now is an operational unit for an emergency power outage. I highly recommend them for the service and the service after the installation. No complaints from this customer."

"Dominion Services replaced my 30-year old HVAC system (the outside compressor, and the inside air handler) with a modern one having a 50% increased efficiency rating. The quality of their work is high (four friendly employees with more than 100+ years' combined experience were involved) and have good flexibility to adjust to my work schedule. They easily adapted the new system to the existing hook-ups, and were flexible in their selection among alternate, reliable replacement HVAC systems. The replacement cost was well within the range of the national average. I recommend contacting Dominion Services for insight into any HVAC issue."

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in Benson, NC

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.
