"Ryan responded to my request for a quote and left me a text with all his contact info. I called him and explained my furnace delemma. He scheduled a home visit for the first thing the next day. He called me with an ETA to let me know he was on his way. Ryan greeted me with his business card and went straight to work intensifying the problem and getting the necessary parts to get us back in business. Ryan kepts my wife and I updated on costs and timing every step of the way. Once our furnace was operational again he gave us quotes on updating our 20 year old HVAC system with great options and recommendations. I appreciated that Ryan never spoke down to us or used fear tactics. I would highly recommend HVAC Solutions 207 to do honest, timely and professional work on your home heating and cooling systems."

"Gammon's Heating and Cooling exceeded our expectations! Justin was incredibly helpful in guiding us through the process of replacing our antique steam boiler. He patiently provided three different quotes and never pressured us to choose the most expensive option. The installation team, led by the highly experienced Bill, was fantastic. They arrived on time with a full crew, a great mix of seasoned professionals and eager learners. We even heard Bill sharing his expertise with the younger team members, which was impressive. From start to finish, the professionalism of Gammon's was outstanding. We wholeheartedly recommend them to our family and friends"

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in Biddeford, ME

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.
