"I’ve used Carlson Heating & Cooling twice and have been very satisfied both times. In 2024, I had them inspect my furnace and AC. They arrived on time, were professional, and gave my system a clean bill of health—without recommending any unnecessary repairs. In 2005, when my AC stopped working, they quickly diagnosed a dead compressor and recommended a replacement. Impressively, they waived the $225 charge for the initial visit and parts. The replacement was completed on schedule, exactly within the estimated cost. The technicians were friendly, informative, and professional throughout the process. They also cleaned up thoroughly, leaving no mess behind. I trust Carlson Heating & Cooling completely and will continue to use them for future service. I highly recommend them to anyone needing a system check-up, repair, or replacement."

"Dave was very nice and professional. Gave me a fair estimate for a new system. Brett and Jake assessed the problem and determined that there was no problem contrary to what I was told by Temperature Docs "your system is fried, your only recourse is to buy a new furnace and air conditioner" for nearly $7,000! My air condtioner started working with a tweak of a knowing plier. I was not charged a repair cost only for the service call /diagnostic which was very reasonable. I asked Brett if my system looked "fried" and he said no. I was more than relieved that the situation was remedied so easily and economically. I was impressed by everyone's professionalism and most of all honesty. I would recommend this company to anyone need heating and cooling assistance. Best of all it is veteran owned!"

"Emergency. Furnace went out overnight. Woke up freezing. Called G&R Heating. They (Adam), responded within one hour. Furnace couldn't be repaired - provided quote that was acceptable and accepted immediately. New furnace (and air conditioner) was installed within 4 hours. Total lapse of time from waking up to a cold house to new furnace (and air conditioner) was 5-1/2 hours. Excellent and superior customer service. I now have the heat back and am toasty and warm again. Great work G&R."

"In October of 2024 I had the most excellent good fortune to work with Greenlink Energy Solutions as part of an ComEd Home Energy Efficiency project that included replacement of the furnace/a.c. and water heater, as well as top to bottom weatherization of my house. Even before the project started both Olivia and Jarron took the time to answer any questions and address any concerns I had regarding the equipment being installed and the overall scope of the project. Day 1, first up was a couple of electrical guys, quickly followed by Jarron and his HVAC team, Ben & Ryan. All on time and ready to get to it. Professional, pleasant and remarkably tolerant of my nonstop questions about the systems, the guys went to work and, other than a quick lunch break, worked nonstop, not particularly concerned about the clock but more about getting to a reasonable stopping place for the day. By the time they were finished, everything was operational, square and plumb, all pipes, valves, duct work and conduit looking very slick, orderly and professional. (5 stars just on the sheet metal work alone). Next up was the weatherization team with Nick leading the charge. Again, on time and ready to go. These guys, Zarek, Steven and Danial, came in with a plan and went right two it, peeling off to address varying issues and again, once on the ground it was go time for these guys. Remarkably, all willing and ready to jump in to even the less desirable parts of the project (like who really wants to go into a hot attic and crawl around in the corners? But they did it and with no hesitation or whining). Over all there were several things that impressed me about the Greenlink teams. There is the obvious stuff, like the punctuality and, remarkably, the through cleanup at the end of each day, and also the obvious work ethic, mutual respect amongst the team members and easy and informative communication with me. I think what was the most reassuring though, you could see the obvious pride the Greenlink people take in their work and, just as importantly, the obvious pride they take in working as part of the Greenlink team. That says a lot. I would not hesitate to recommend Greenlink Energy Solutions to anyone. I suspect my neighbors are already tired of hearing about how good they are."

"Howard did an amazing job installing a bathroom exhaust fan in a very difficult location. We have an old duplex that was built in the 1920s and he went above and beyond to get it installed. It looks like it has always been there. Honestly I’ve never met anyone so knowledgeable and skilled in so many areas. If you need a project done, no matter how difficult, Howard will get it done. I highly recommend HW Home Repair!"

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in Loves Park, IL

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.
