"Seacoast has been our service provider for many years. While care taking for a snowbird their heat pump started leaking. Sea coast responded within 2 hours and not only fixed the leak but gave us a general assessment to pass on to the owner. For your information, Zack is the best!"

"High humidity problem. System was not set correctly when installed around 3,5 years ago. Have had Florida Breeze out for maintenance and they have added refrigerant twice which has cost me around $1,300. This diagnostic visit was to find and repair the system errors. Tech to return in. Few weeks at no chg to make sure it is working properly after the changes."

"I called this company to get a second opinion on operational, protection, air quality and preventive maintenance for my Lennox A/C. Not only did they undercut their competitors but they confirmed my suspicions that lot of these services were not even necessary! The crew arrived on time and showed/explained the scope of work being done. Mike the owner also came by and patiently answered all my questions regarding future servicing, costs, and recommendations. I wholeheartedly and without reservations recommend Leading Air and Heat for anyone seeking honest, professional, and cost effective servicing on their A/C."

"Sun city was the second AC person I contacted. I won't give the name. Sun made a quick phone call to get the part we needed and had it installed and cool air did come out. I was impressed with the speed and quality of his work. I won't have to sleep in the heat tonight, thanks to Ken"

"Clean HVAC Ductwork and Dryer Vent whole house system. The two workers were diligent in their work and congenial to my wife and me. They knew exactly what they were doing and informed us of their steps to completion. They came from the area and knew the development that we live in. I would definitely use this company again if they are the type of workers that the company employs."

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in Melbourne, FL

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.
