"I'd like to take a moment to share with you my experience with Air Care Heating and Cooling who recently installed a new heating furnace replacing our original heater from 1976. After interviewing four reputable local companies in San Diego I chose aircraft based on excellent reviews on Google and Angie's list. Mr Michael Santana (Owner and founder) offered very affordable pricing compared to others not forsaking the quality of/ furnace unit, warranty and exemplary customer care /service. The installation process was flawless. Mr Santana's and staff demonstrated outstanding professional performance, effective communication to answer questions and concerns even adding extras like replacing events and the job completion in a timely manner making the whole process from beginning to end a truly"

"I talked to the owner (Howard) and told him our old heater had failed and my wife was catching a cold., We worked out the details on Thursday, and on Friday Night the system was totally installed and operating. The tech they sent out was excellent, worked until he had everything working correctly, I can't thank him enough for his good work and professionalism and working with my concerns. Great Job Guys!!"

"I would highly recommend this company to anyone. The rep I had only charged me for the ac sealant and the two pounds of freon he used. He was very friendly informative and very fair. It's too bad you can't find service like this all the time."

"Same Day provided a bid on a system that perfectly fit my needs. The removal of the existing older system was not easy as they had to disassemble it to get it out of the attic, but Troy did an excellent job. The install of the new A/C and furnace system was done professionally and competently. Troy walked me through all of the new components, set the Nest WiFi thermostat, and made sure everything was operating efficiently. I'm very pleased."

"First we called the company we had delt with in the past, that got us no where. So we went to Angie’s List and found Carini. One of us has Lupus and get very sick from extreme heat like we have had recently. It was the same day as the West Fire in Alpine. Omar came out the next morning and gave us two options he could do right away, we made our choice and he did just that, got to work. Omar was very polite and showed concern for our situation. We will definitely use Carini and Omar in the future."

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.
