"James received my email at 5:00am. My furnace stopped working and my home warranty company couldn't find anyone to repair our furnace. At 7:30am James was at our home ready to perform the repair. He went right to work diagnosed the issue and even had the patience to get approval through our home warranty company. All I can say is WOW. I would highly recommend this company and hope my warranty company will be smart enough to get them on contract. Thank You G. Goodson in Cape Girardeau, Mo"

"I couldn't be more impressed with the service we received on our gas furnace repair. From the moment Kyle arrived, he was professional, courteous, and clearly knew his stuff. He took the time to walk me through exactly what was wrong, what he was doing to fix it, and what to watch for going forward, which I really appreciated. He made sure I understood everything before he left and answered every question we had with patience and expertise. Highly recommend — if you need HVAC work done, this is who you call."

"He replaced my A/C and heating unit. The clean up was great...no mess. Didn't try to sell me what I don't need. We chose him and prices were on the lower end. Impeccable service. Called for a follow up, since my new unit was loud. He came out and made the correction and it is fixed. He also included a service warranty."

"My central air stopped working on a Friday evening. I called Hurricane Air and a tech named Brandon was dispatched and arrived within 3 hours. He was very polite and professional. Brandon diagnosed the problem within about 15 mins. He replaced the part and had my air conditioner blowing cold air again quickly. I plan on calling them again for any future issues and preventative maintenance. Thank you Hurricane Air."

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.
