"We had been told by another company the unit needed to be replaced. Shoals did a diagnostic and completed the work for 1/10th of the other estimated cost. They were fast, courteous, on time, and professional. I was having this work done for a family member who is in the hospital. I believe the other company was trying to take advantage. I would recommend Shoals Comfort Solutions LLC to anyone looking for honest-professional service."

"They did an excellent job. They arrived at my house very quickly after I sent the request, which I really appreciated. My air conditioning wasn?t cooling, and although I?m not sure what the issue was, they diagnosed and fixed it incredibly fast. On top of that, the price was very reasonable. I?m very happy with the service and would definitely recommend them."

"The whole experience was smooth sailing from the start. Unit wasn’t cooling the house down at all so we reached out to DJ and he responded to our problem quickly. It only took him a few minutes to figure out the problem and then when it came to fixing it, our house was cooling down in no time. He is the only person I’m having work on my air unit from now on."

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in Lester, AL

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.
