"We recently had our HVAC system replaced by CoolRay Heating and Air and were extremely pleased with the entire experience. Mike Ritchey, our sales representative, conducted a thorough evaluation of our existing system and clearly presented several replacement options tailored to our needs. He was knowledgeable, responsive, and worked diligently to provide a competitive and fair price. The installation was led by Rollin Tappin, who, along with his team, demonstrated professionalism and care throughout the process. They completed the work safely, efficiently, and with great attention to detail. The new system is functioning perfectly, and we greatly appreciate the high level of service delivered by both Mike and Rollin. We would confidently recommend CoolRay Heating and Air to anyone in need of HVAC services."

"My husband left a message requesting a technician on a Saturday morning... Pedro returned his call in less than 30 minutes. He came out to our house approximately 30 minutes later and was able to assess and diagnose the problem with our heating system."

"Bobby came out and installed a complete Trane system and even relocated the furnace and A/C compressor to a more sensible location. The installation crew was polite, professional and efficient. The new heating and air system works flawlessly. Best service I have ever gotten from a HVAC company ever!"

"I can't recommend Jade Heat and Air more. I struggled for years with a recurrent problem with my HVAC and dealt with several other service providers who couldn't seem to fix it. Jade fixed it and it stayed fixed for three years. Just had them out to fix a new problem and couldn't be happier with Cesar Aguilar."

"Adam and team installed a new HVAC system for me. From start to finish, they were prompt, professional, courteous, efficient. After diagnosing the problem, Adam took the time to explain the issue and lead me through all the potential solutions. Installation went flawlessly. Adam's team did a great job including putting covers over their shoes while in my home and cleaning up after the job was complete. I would definitely recommend 4 Seasons for your HVAC needs."

"We had a great experience. The guy did not mind working in front our kids and was kind to them. He was unbelievably clean. He showed up when he said he would and looked over most of the plumbing system in the house. He told us some things we may need to watch for, but not necessarily have fixed."

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in Gainesville, GA

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.
