"The installation was done very well and carefully thought out. The furnace was replaced in one day so we did not go without heat. The heat pump and the on demand hot water heater installation was completed in two days. Brian did a great job and we have a great heating system that will last us many years. My wife and I appreciate the that the installation was completed quickly and works great. Thank you for a job well done."

Hi, I’m Lenny Guenov, owner of Guenov Comfort Solutions. I’ve spent years working my way up in this industry, starting from the ground up. My journey began in a scrapyard, armed with nothing but a saw and sneakers. From there, I installed residential and commercial equipment and eventually became a service technician.\n\nAlong the way, I’ve been covered in mud in dirt fields, surrounded by scrap metal, coated in insulation in customers’ attics, and braving snow on commercial rooftops. Through it all, I’ve learned what it truly means to work with dignity and integrity. That hands-on experience drives me to provide honest, reliable solutions for every customer.\n\nYour not just getting a technician, you’re getting someone who’s lived the work, knows the details, and brings the reliability and honesty too often missing in this industry. I’ve fought tirelessly to earn my place in this tough, rugged field. All I ask is the chance to earn my place in your home and deliver comfort for your family

"I had an issue with my computer where it was opening lots of pop ups, ad bars, and windows with ads for games. I had tried several different programs to try to remove it with no luck. I finally decided to call North Alabama Technical Service to see if I he could help. I was expecting to set up a time for him to look at it but he connected to my computer immediately and within an hour had it fixed and running perfect again. Great service at a great price and I didn't even have to disconnect it and carry it somewhere! Would call again if I have another issue I can't resolve myself."

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in Cortland, NY

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.
