"Ken, the owner, came out and did the estimate personally. We decided we needed to get 3 estimates and asked the others to quote the same equipment Ken did. We had an old Carrier system which had given us no end of trouble installed by one of the big HVAC companies in town which I will never use again. We opted for a top of the line Trane system this time. Ken worked with us to adjust his bids to quote the same equipment that the others were quoting. We had Ken come out to do some duct sealing and cold air return enlargement a few years back, so we went to him first. Ken was easy to work with, on time and provided the lowest bid, so we went ahead. The crew showed up on time and installed the system in one day despite allowing for two. They did a thorough job, cleaned up after themselves and were very courteous and considerate. When we had the independent duct seal test done, the tester indicated that he was always happy to inspect their work, since it was consistently well done. When the county inspector came to sign off the permit, he seemed to feel the same way. This is a family company who consistently do good honest work and are easy to work with. We signed up for Golden Aire's maintenance program and they extended the labor warranty to 10 years. One of the other bids we got was from a larger company that sends us postcards pretty regularly even though we have not used them in the past. Their bids were 25-35% higher for the same equipment and they were a real pain to deal with, just getting the bids."

"My 36-year-old heating and air conditioning system, which was original to my home, had been on borrowed time for some while. I researched and got bids from four local companies. I needed a new heat pump and air handler at least, but I also wanted to replace the insulation and duct work since it too was old and I had had some rodent issues in my attic some years ago. Insulation upgrades also qualify for additional SMUD rebates. Not only was Huft's bid the lowest, but my Bosch system is more energy efficient than any of the other systems quoted me and whisper quiet. From the salesman Glenn to the installation lead Tever and the insulation installer Anthony, I was impressed with their level of punctuality, courtesy, and professionalism throughout the process. In fact, Glenn was the only salesman who actually took the time to take measurements at my house and explained the numbers of why I needed a three-ton system. I am very happy with my system thus far and I would highly recommend Huft to others!"

"Our experience was excellent! George, the owner, assessed our situation, which was needing a first-time new HVAC System, and gave his recommendations. We had good communication throughout the process. They were diligent, knowledgable, and efficient workers. In 30 years of being in Sacramento, we have never had a central air system. No more enduring the heat! We are very pleased. All at a very affordable price. Thanks!"

"Sales rep (Tim) was professional, providing an on-site assessment and recommendations for furnace replacement. He also walked me through the installation process and benefits of the recommended furnaces vs our budget. Installation team (Alvaro & Joaquin) was professional, friendly & communicated what to expect. Discovered that delivered furnace was switched to another one due to conflict with our local codes. After they made phone calls with their home office, an acceptable solution was provided that met my expected furnace performance and stayed within the quoted cost. Another ABC staff member picked up an upgraded furnace and delivered it to our house. Installation was smooth and crew cleaned up after themselves. We were left with a "warm" feeling about ABC!"

"Angel was extremely professional, informative, and very nice as well. I got quotes from five different companies and the quote I received from Elite Heating & Air was by far the best. They came out and installed the system as scheduled in about half a day. I am very happy with my choice."

"I was fortunate to receive service on the same day I called. My issue was difficult to diagnose, as many have tried before. They were willing to step in and try to resolve my issue for good. They were successful at their first attempt. I am grateful to Guerrero Heating & Air this Labor Day weekend of 100*F+ weather."

"The experience was fantastic! I never thought I'd say that about a furnace installation but the 2 servicemen Dmitry and his colleague made me feel very comfortable with all the proceedings. The last time I had to replace my central air system was different. The gentlemen doing the job were dismissive of my requests and ended up setting it up wrong having to return several times to finish. Nothing like that with RK Mechanical, super smooth sailing."

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in Elk Grove, CA

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.
