"We were in the market for a complete system & researched several companies. A-1 was the only company to suggest a "Hybrid" system. ( Gas furnace with a heat pump) They explained how the "Hybrid" system worked & how it would affect our utility bills. We did some research on our own & found it to be the best type of system for the local weather conditions here in Champaign, IL..A-1 came in, took out the old system. They installed the new system, including a touch screen thermostat. A- 1 was on time, very professional & went above and beyond what we expected them to do. The old AC was kind of tilted on the ground and they broke the dirt down and completely leveled the ground before installing the new heat pump. We are very pleased with how the system works and that it does exactly what A-1 said it would. Have recommended A-1 to people we know who will be in the market for their kind of services."

"The best service experience we have had in a long time. Ray came out within hours and diagnosed and repaired our furnace. It ended up just being a clogged tube port on the induction motor and that was such a relief during the holidays. Ray could’ve sold us anything to get the heat back on but he was honest about it being just a routine maintenance issue. He took care of the issue quickly and checked several other items in the furnace. We will definitely recommend them to anyone needing prompt and courteous service"

"I've used Ray for a few jobs over the years now. He is a great communicator, always performs great work, professional, knowledgeable, and recommends what you need. I truly appreciate someone with that kind of ethic. Others companies (No names) i've dealt with in the past were overpriced and not reasonable. Ray was the complete opposite of that. I called him with an issue I had with my furnace, he responded quickly, had me back up and running quickly, and his prices were outstanding. My total bill with labor included was $184.00. Awesome all around. Thank you Ray!"

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.
