"It all works, Must have gone well. I have yet to go into the hot attic to check out the work,. I have no doubt they did a good job as I am a repeat customer---they installed the downstairs system three years ago. They both work well and my electricity bill has gone down!!"

"I received a call back from Doneright HVAC within 5 minutes of posting on Home Advisor. Garret arrived to my home in 30 minutes with his technician (as promised.) They were friendly, knowledgeable and professional. He was thorough in trying to pinpoint the exact problem and offer the most cost effective solutions, while still informing me of the inevitable need to replace my 12 year old, failing system. He even identified a faulty outlet in my attic where the units heavy plug had been attached for over a decade, and had caused some type of electrical failure resulting in Black scorch marks on both the outlet and the plug which could very possibly have turned into a house fire had it not been identified. He immediately jumped in his car and drove all the way to Home Depot to go get The necessary materials to change the plug\ outlet to a breaker protected switch, and rewired it to prevent further danger, and hardly charge me a thing for it! To sum it up; I would recommend Doneright HVAC to anyone needing HVAC service of any kind and will be keeping them as my permanent HVAC professionals! Thanks for everything guys!"

"Majano Heating and AC came out on schedule. They found that the AC breaker had tripped, and guessed that this was caused by the compressor going bad. I felt stupid for not checking the breaker myself. They charged me $60 for a call-out fee, which I suppose is about average. They also quoted a price of $6000 for a new system or $3000 for just a new compressor, which, again, is probably about average these days, yet still outrageous."

"I recently had Amerson’s Heating and Air Conditioning install an Ecobee thermostat at my home, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. The technician was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain how everything worked before leaving. The installation was quick, clean, and done right the first time. The new Ecobee thermostat works great and has already made managing the temperature in my home much easier and more efficient. I really appreciated the excellent customer service and attention to detail throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Amerson’s Heating and Air Conditioning to anyone looking for reliable HVAC service or smart thermostat installation!"

"Mark and Corey were both very prompt, courteous, and professional. They presented fair pricing and superior installation on the 2 (two) HVAC systems that they supplied for my wife and I . They went the extra mile with them showing up to complete the install prior to a Hurricane headed directly at our area. I highly recommend Sensible Air Solutions for all of your needs, whether it be a full HVAC installation or HVAC service/repairs."

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in Covington, 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.
