"Found no issues . Possible operator error. T-stat did as programmed with the time delay, after I reset it . I forgot about that built in protection. The technician did a great job checking both indoor and outdoor units. He took the time to refresh me about the operation of the system.."

"I was concerned about losing the personal touch by going with a big regional company versus a small local one. So far I have experienced the same response and service. I see no reason this will change going forward. Every aspect of the system purchase, from sale to installation and follow up have been excellent."

"First of all Patsy showed up, actually a day early to look at the project. This was amazing being I had been waiting a year plus for another person to do the job. He started right away on the job. Due to the salt air climate, I had bought lifetime finished brass hardware that matched the hardware for the front door. When Patsy started to work on the install, he discovered that the screen knob and the main door hardware would interfere with the closure of the doors. He suggested that I return the hardware and purchase another, which I did. In the meanwhile, he sent me a suggestion picture of a system that would work. I bought a similar one with the same lifetime guarantee as my original hardware that looked like his picture. We arranged for Patsy's return and he was even slightly early the day that was set. The lock that I purchased had to be mortised in the door. He and his other carpenter, Chris, did not blink an eye and installed the lock. The door was slightly thicker than the opening and again Patsy knew exactly how to make it fit, work and look exactly like it was made for that size. Both Patsy and Chris were meticulous throughout the entire installation and the final product is spectacular! I will not hesitate to use this company again! They are extremely professional, trust worthy and a pleasure! The bill was more than fair for the complexity of the job! It was not your typical screen door install! I wish I could upload a picture for everyone to see the fabulous job it turned out to be!

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in Hartly, DE

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.
