"We were in the market for a complete system & researched several companies. A-1 was the only company to suggest a "Hybrid" system. ( Gas furnace with a heat pump) They explained how the "Hybrid" system worked & how it would affect our utility bills. We did some research on our own & found it to be the best type of system for the local weather conditions here in Champaign, IL..A-1 came in, took out the old system. They installed the new system, including a touch screen thermostat. A- 1 was on time, very professional & went above and beyond what we expected them to do. The old AC was kind of tilted on the ground and they broke the dirt down and completely leveled the ground before installing the new heat pump. We are very pleased with how the system works and that it does exactly what A-1 said it would. Have recommended A-1 to people we know who will be in the market for their kind of services."

"The best service experience we have had in a long time. Ray came out within hours and diagnosed and repaired our furnace. It ended up just being a clogged tube port on the induction motor and that was such a relief during the holidays. Ray could’ve sold us anything to get the heat back on but he was honest about it being just a routine maintenance issue. He took care of the issue quickly and checked several other items in the furnace. We will definitely recommend them to anyone needing prompt and courteous service"

"Mr. Ferrell came to my home and picked up my dinosaur of a computer...a 2005 Dell Desktop.  For all intents and purposes, it was barely running.  If I was lucky, I was able to check my gmail and sometimes send a response.  Mr. Ferrell picked up my computer on his DAY OFF (Friday) and returned it to me on LABOR DAY.  He said that my computer had over 7,000 viruses on it. It was the most he had ever seen!  What I got back from him on Labor Day was the computer I purchased in 2005, but much better.
Mr. Ferrell installed an ENTIRE new operating system, he upgraded my ram, he re-installed his FREE virus protection.  Mr. Ferrell backed and restored ALL of my data.  And, if that was not enough, he updated my hardware system. And, he charged me $125 which I think is an incredible price due to the fact he gave me a BRAND NEW COMPUTER.
Mr. Ferrell is extremely professional, friendly, and incredibly efficient with his time and your money.  I just started using my new computer this week and I am in heaven.  No more viruses...no more waiting 10 minutes to pull up a website...and no more having to pull out all of my cords out of my modem and rebooting my computer.  I am thrilled with the job that Mr. Ferrell did and I would recommend him to anyone.

"The technician arrived on time and promptly began diagnosing the air conditioning system. When freon levels were checked, it showed that the levels were showing an over charge of the system. When some of the freon was bled off, the numbers went all over the place. The tech cleaned the air conditioner using our own hose, which was not put back in its proper place after he was through with it. We were then advised that we would have to "wait and see" if their repairs would have any effect on the ability of the air conditioner to keep the inside temperature below 79. The tech left and advised they would be back later in the day, or the next day. We paid the bill for the service call and the cleaning of the air conditioner, even though our hose was used. That was $152. After several hours, it became evident that the repairs were having no effect. We waited until 5pm for a phone call regarding a follow-up. At that point we called Purcell, and were told that a tech would be out to follow up. When he arrived, he looked at the system again and couldn't uncover any new issues. We then asked for a quote for a new air conditioner/furnace. At this point, the techs savvy car salesman like skills were quite evident. In addition, they don't participate in the current Ameren Act-on-energy rebates, which would add up to $800. To make up for this, the tech offered a $100 off his total price for the estimates, which ranged from $3400 to $17000. Over the next few days, we had 4 different companies come out to give us estimates on new air conditioners. One company wanted to inspect the current air conditioner we had, to ensure that nothing could be done to the current unit. Upon inspection, it was found that the compressor of the air conditioner was not functioning, which would not allow any tech to get accurate freon readings. This explains why Purcell was receiving errant readings. My question to Purcell is this: What exactly did we pay 152 for? The tech should have recognized that a part as big as a compressor was not running, but he missed it. So long story short, we paid $152 to Purcell for them to mis-diagnose an air conditioner and for them to use our hoses to spray water at the air conditioner unit, and then not put the equipment away. We chose this company due to their good ratings on angies list, but I feel this review should serve as a red flag to any of you who are considering Purcell."

"The Technician seem to know his job and seems very experienced in it. He explained why the furnace was not allowing heat to through. There was a part that had to be checked every few years and cleaned. And he did it put the back inside the furnace and the heat started."

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in Cerro Gordo, IL

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.
