"I had some issues with my 10 year old furnace and started looking into issues. I used to work for Carrier as an HVAC researcher and tried to fix the issues myself. I disassembled the burner and tried to get things right. In the end, I exhausted options and gave up on repair. I called my serviceman, trying to have the furnace repaired. He recommended getting a new furnace or replacing the whole HVAC since it was more than 10 years old. My serviceman gave me a quote for a Carrier furnace, which I thought was high since I knew the price of the unit (ex-Carrier R&D engineer). That was when I decided to look around. I received three quotes after reading through reviews in google and Angie’s list. In the end, I chose ARS Manassas by virtue of their overall competitiveness. In any business, it takes two things to win a deal: trust and value. In my case, one salesperson, Cliff Allen (who I will talk about more in a minute) delivered both aspects, which made the decision easy. Since I know the HVAC system in and out, I had many detailed (and even tedious) questions, to which he answered professionally with knowledge and courtesy. He did not try to upsell anything. In fact, he recommended to check a few things for repair, even while giving quotes for me. Although I decided to get the new one in the end after trying a few more attempt for repair, Cliff earned my trust and respect in the meantime. He tried to provide an optimal solution in terms of price and performance, which was more competitive than the other two quotes. I ended up getting 16 SEER performance series furnace and AC. Cliff truly knew what he was doing during the selection process. He answered all the questions an ex-Carrier R&D engineer raised and provided several quotes for comparison, which helped me to reach a satisfactory solution in an efficient and rational manner. He never tried to upsell, clearly understanding customer’s side. To the contrary, he did his best to give me the best deal without compromising performance. His professionalism does not stop at sales. He went over all the items in the specifics of installation, meticulously jotting down any notables in the contract. I was not surprised to see the technicians, Michael and Melvin, show up on time and finish the job, following the specifics and notables that Cliff had prepared at the contract phase. They tried to make the installation smooth and went over every single item to make sure that it was done to perfection. About a month later, the town inspector came out and made sure that the unit had been properly installed. The inspector confirmed that the job was done to the standard but pointed out that it would be better to add another bracket to the outdoor unit so that it would not move around. I called ARS to inform the findings of the inspection. ARS has promptly scheduled another visit (even if they could have waited for AC checkup in the late spring) to fix the issue. This time Jeremy and Josh came out and meticulously fixed the issue. These two gentlemen really knew what they were doing. They went a lot further than just adding a bracket. The outdoor unit is so sturdily attached to the bracket now that even a hurricane would not shake the outdoor unit. My kudos to Jeremy and Josh. I will come back and write a further review in 6 months to report any issues I experience but for now, I am glad that I chose ARS Manassas for new HVAC installation. If you ever need a new HVAC near Manassas area, the choice is simple. Go for a trustworthy and knowledgeable man that would deliver the best value for your investment, Cliff Allen at ARS."

"They're great. They also have the maintenance contract on the system. When we moved into the house they were the people servicing it and we decided that we would continue to use them. We got a choice to get a new furnace because it was quieter and they also did some duct work. They were wonderful. For this area where we live, the price was comparable to another local company and even considering the quality of the unit I think it was right on target."

"Excellent service, very fast response to my request for service, picked up laptop, diagnosed issues. Initially thought it was an OS update issue but the hard drive had failed along with other components (including 'CPU). Because other components were involved, a new solid state hard drive was put into a laptop with a working processor - same type CPU as in the failed unit. The laptop was repaired and returned in less than a week. This company picked up and dropped off the laptop (driving from Huntsville, AL (about 60-70 minutes)-- great service in this covid environment. I would recommend this company to my family./friends and will use again."

The guys that showed up were great, very friendly, and ready to answer any questions I had.  They did their work quickly and cleaned up afterwards.  They also got me an extra discount on the repairs.

There were no high pressure sales pitch or scare tactics used.    There was no bait and switch or 'limited time offers'  to push the sale along.



The front office person I dealt with could have made more of an effort.  The day of my repairs, I was called and told the Credit Card Machine was not working, so I would have to pay by check, or my appointment would have to be changed to another day.  I was then called back after several minutes and told that a post-dated check would be acceptable if funds were not currently available.  I understand that the Credit Card System was being changed over, but there should have been some thought put into this before calling anyone.

The B for responsiveness is for the front office, not the workers.

"HVAC EVOLUTIONS services technician Mynor Morales was very promt and friendly in his services. He arrived within the hour I had contacted his company when my furnace suddenly stopped working the day before a very large storm was to hit our area.  After finding the problem he was able to get the part and install it without delay. I found him to not only be helpful and fair but honest, which is pleasantly surprising  sometimes in this industry especially when you are faced with  a sudden emergency. Instead of calling the big names I took my friends recommendation and called HVAC EVOLUTION Home Appliance Repair Heating and Cooling Services.  I was very glad I did and will certainly not only pass the referral on but I will also feel good about calling them in the future.

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in Kinsale, VA

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.
