"My husband and I were getting bids for replacing our old air cond and furnice with a new heat pump and air conditioner. We had no idea what this would cost. Mr. Poston came to our home and explained everything to us. He was so nice. He did not leave out anything. I was really impressed but my husband and I could not afford a heat pump at this time. Thanks so much."

"I’ve used Hooks Maintenance Solutions several times. The past time was just two months ago when my AC wasn’t cooling. I called HMS (Wesley) and he came right over and diagnosed the problem very quickly. He added some Freon to my unit and gave me some tips on how to keep it cooled down in this Texas heat. Within a couple of hours my house was cool again. I would give HMS a 5 plus for the efficiency, knowledge, and overall customer service. Wesley goes above & beyond for his customers. I highly recommend him."

"Chris responded with a house visit to check my air conditioner mini-split system very quickly. He communicated the problem with the unit and gave me the information I needed to make an informed decision on the repair. The repair parts were difficult to find but he eventually got the unit delivered and made an on-time finish of the repair. The unit works well so far."

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in Blanchard, LA

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.
