"Quick response, helpful appraisal of my heating problem, ordered replacement parts that same day. I could not be happier with the professionalism and speed of diagnosing my problem. Parts came within the week and promptly installed the new heating system."

"Jonathan from Kent County Mechanical did an outstanding job. He contacted me within minutes of my posting for service on Angi. We discussed the issue with my furnace, on the phone and set up a convenient time for him to come by. He diagnosed the problem and reviewed with me the best course of action. Within an hour he sent me a competitive quote. He worked around my schedule. He replaced my old furnace with a superior product; had me up and running in a timely manner. He did all the work himself, from start to finish, he registered my new furnace for warranty, and even provided a dozen filters. Also, he guarantees his work for one year. Jonathan goes above and beyond. I will definitely use Kent County Mechanical again and would highly recommend them for your heating and air conditioning needs."

"We called Fellowship in dire straights in the middle of the night when our heating pipe burst due to freezing temperatures and wind chill. Kyle and Neal arrived on time the following morning and were on top of what needed to be done, it was like plumbing triage and they were able to get right into the walls and diagnose the issue and do what was necessary to get our heat working again. We look forward to the contractor coming to patch things up but glad that they remediated the issue and will definitely use them for future plumbing needs."

"I am super happy with Drivers. After a bit of rescheduling (totally understandable during this cold winter) they serviced my boiler and my heat has been perfect ever since. They cleaned out a system that probably hadn't been cleaned in 5+ years (it was disgusting in there) and now everything works better than it ever has since I moved in. I used to wake up freezing in the middle of the night and now I haven't even thought about the heat in a week, everything is working perfect now. Will have them come every year to do routine service."

Customers say: Quick response

"Had a Tornado hit my house and ripped out my mains power. Figured I'd upgrade the panel while I was at it and have a generator outlet installed for when I lose power again. Nick was VERY professional - gave me a quote, showed up on time, answered all of my questions, and the price was exactly where I expected it to be. Job was very well done. When the power went back on, my fridge didn't have power. He helped me pull the fridge out to find a GFI outlet, and he helped me reset it. Was really just a huge help! The guy is clearly a hard worker who really knows what he's doing. What I love is that I didn't talk to a sales guy who then sent a couple of kids to do the job. I got a quote, and the guy I spoke to did the work. That's awesome. I can't recommend this guy highly enough! Will reach out for any and all electrical work in the future."

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in East Providence, RI

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.
